Hi all,
I was thinking (Actually my cousins idea since he is studying Esperanto.)
With people playing DnL from all over the world on 1 server, and politics playing such an important role, what could be very helpfull is a language that is easily learnable by everyone. Esperanto is a fully developed, living language that was invented 120 years ago to facilitate international communication. It is still used today by people from all over the world who have conversations through internet chat and e-mail, who would otherwise not be able to speak to each other because they lack a common tongue.
Esperanto is much easier to learn than the world's major languages, and it has an incredibly regular grammar and easy to learn vocabulary. While most languages have hundreds upon hundreds of verb forms, Esperanto has only six. Period. The words are based on roots from Latin, Greek, German, English, and other European languages, and speakers of those languages often find many similarities to their own no matter which tongue they speak. An Esperanto speaker can also multiply their vocabulary using a simple system of affixes and suffixes that change the meaning of a root word.
For more information and to learn the language quickly over the net, visit http://www.lernu.net or http://www.esperanto.net.
Perhaps we can form an Esperanto Guild. Of course this would not take you away from your current guild. It is just a way of us all knowing who speaks Esperanto so we can start getting together and possibly form alliances and such for when the game comes out. As I understand it this is in line with DnL's ideas on guilds anyway, so this is my suggestion and offer.
Of course there would be a "Dark" and a "Light" Esperanto Guild ingame and of course we would be enemies ("Light" myself) but here again as I understand it there will be times; trading, crafting, etc. when cooperation between "Dark" and "Light" will be necessary and benificial.
I myself do not speak Esperanto yet but have decided to begin learning it. So if anyone is fluent and there is interest in this idea please step up to the plate, and perhaps you can lead this guild.
Thx for consideration, hope to see you all ingame A.S.A.P.!!!
Please translate this into your language if there is interest. ~Reyajh
Esperanto, bonega metodo por komuniki en DnL
Saluton Cxiuj,
Mi pensis (fakte gxi estas la ideo de mia kuzo cxar li studas Esperanton)-
Cxar homoj ludas DnL tutmonde en unu servilo, kaj cxar politiko ludas kian gravan rolon, povas esti tre helpema lingvo kiu estas facile lernebla por cxiuj... Esperanto.
Eble ni povas formi Esperantan gildon. Kompreneble gxi ne forprenus vin de via nuntempa gildo. Gxi estas nur metodo por ke cxiuj scios kiujn parolas Esperanton, por ke ni povas ekkunigxi kaj eble formi aliancojn, ktp kiam la ludo maltenigxos. Laux mia kompreno, cxi tio estas paralela al la ideoj de DnL pri gildoj iaokaze, do cxi tio estas mia propono.
Kompreneble estus "Malluma" kaj "Luma" Esperantaj gildoj enlude kaj kompreneble la du estus malamikoj, (mi mem estas Luma), sed denove, laux mia kompreno, estos fojoj (komercado, forgxado, ktp) kiam kunlaboro inter "Malluma" kaj "Luma" estos necesa kaj avantagxa.
Mi mem ne ankoraux parolas Esperanton, sed mi decidis eklerni gxin. Do, se iu ajn estas flua kaj estas interesigxo pri cxi tiu ideo, bonvolu antauxpasxi kaj eble vi povas konduki cxi tiun gildon.
Dankon pro via konsidero, kaj mi esperas vidi vin cxiuj enlude kiel baldaux tiel eblas!!!
Bonvolu traduki cxi tiun mesagxon en vian lingvon se estas interesigxo. ~Reyajh
