We will learn the pronunciation of

Esperanto language in three videos. This

is the first part. OK, let's begin.

First of all, we will learn vowels.

Esperanto vowels are plain sounds

AA, EE. Or oh,

these are only plain sounds,

no depunctuality as

it has in English,

but not in Esperanto. This is just a

ahThere is nothing

like short or long vowels.

In many languages they are short or long

vowels as it is in Latin,

but not in Esperanto.

There is an additional vowel W

used in vowel combinations. It is not

U, it is W.

OK friends, now we will start.

The first vowel sound is
