Steps to learn and use Esperanto, with or without the instructor's help When you write to me, please include your name, age, sex, the name of the town and country where you live, and the languages you know or have studied, with which kind of success. Remember that to learn to write is part of learning a language. Therefore, whenever you write, use complete sentences, the same if you write in Esperanto or in English. Try to write in Esperanto as soon as possible … it does not matter if you make mistakes, or if you have to mix some English words when you don't know the words in Esperanto. Always start each sentence with a capital letter and end it with a period. In most of my pages, the address last letter is:   a (angla/English), e (Esperanto), h (hispana/Spanish) All my pages have my name and the date of the last update.
