Hyperbola: Speaking Planet Earth's languages

Now in the eighth year of the 21st century, Hyperbola - admittedly only a few months old - is becoming more of a blog for Planet Earth

Or at least those that can't read the English language; which admittedly is an ever decreasing number of people. Still, on the right hand side of this blog you will find Google's translate gadget

If you feel like testing out your language skills or just want to read a blog posting in your native tongue then check out the drop down menu and see if your language is listed. You could even translate this post!

Otherwise watch this video of Esperanto speaking socks, alas not a language served by Google

Please don't take this as an example of normal spoken Esperanto! It seems to be made by a couple of beginners having fun (and there's nothing wrong with that!) - but their language is somewhat contorted and not always correct. If you want to hear the real thing, try listening to one of the daily Esperanto podcasts from Radio Polonia: http://www.polskieradio.pl/eo/
or from Radio Vaticana: http://www.radio-vatikana-esperanto.org/
