We are a group of people in Edmonton who are affiliated with the Canadian Esperanto Association. We meet regularly to learn, speak, and enjoy the international language Esperanto.
Most weeks we meet on Friday afternoon between 2:15 PM and 3:15 PM at an office downtown.
What is Esperanto ?
Esperanto is a language created in 1887 by a polish doctor named Zamenhof. The main objective of Esperanto is to serve as a common auxiliary language, fostering more effective and fair international communication. The Esperanto movement also supports linguistic diversity, democracy, human emancipation, and a global culture for peace.
Esperanto is regular and relatively easy to learn, and is currently used by a worldwide community estimated at over one million speakers. Esperanto is employed in world travel, correspondence, cultural exchange, conventions, literature, language instruction, radio broadcasting, and more.
