Beginner Esperanto Conversation Meetup + “La Bona Lingvo"
Qahwah House - Broadway, 2869 Broadway, New York, NY, USJoin us for an in-person Esperanto meetup at Qahwah House Broadway for friendly conversation and an optional reading discussion. This gathering is open to all levels — total beginners, casual learners, and fluent speakers.
☕ For beginners:
Practice greetings, simple questions, and everyday conversation in a relaxed space. No experience is required. We’ll help you speak from the very beginning.
📖 For intermediate & advanced speakers:
Our optional reading this week is the first two chapters of “La bona lingvo” by Claude Piron — an influential text about natural, clear Esperanto style. We’ll talk about Piron’s main ideas and how they shape modern usage.
