Se vi estas Eŭropulo, ĝi estas tre facile lerni. Mi estas eterne komencanto, do mia skribo ne estas bone, sed mi povas leĝi ĝin.
As a native English speaker "-n" trips me up a lot and in general remembering roots and affixes ruin my output. But, input is solid "leĝ-" looks and sounds like "legible" so "leĝi" is "to read", most of the roots are parsable like this.
Eĉ se vi ne estas. Kvankam la lingvo estis desegnita base de aliaj eŭropaj lingvoj, ĝi estas universale facile lernebla. Fakte, estas granda komunumo de esperantistoj en Ĉinio, Koreio, ktp. Nu, la fekan akuzativon ni vere ne bezonis...
