Comment Re:Noun-declension language (Score 1) 878

Nope, no noun declensions. Nouns are made by adding -o to the end of a root. The only changes that are made to a noun are for number or case, and this is done through agglutination instead of declension. Plurals are formed by adding -j after -o. The accusative (direct object) case is made by adding -n after the -o (or after the -j in case of a plural). (j is pronounced like y in Esperanto).

All of these sentences say "I like to learn new languages", although the first one is by far the most common form:

Mi atas lerni novajn lingvojn.
Novajn lingvojn mi atas lerni.
Novajn lingvojn atas lerni mi.
Lerni novajn lingvojn mi atas.
Lerni novajn lingvojn atas mi.

SCO v. Novell Goes To the Jury 67

Excelcia writes "Closing arguments in the six and a bit year old slander of title case between SCO and Novell occurred today and the case is finally in the hands of the jury. It's been an interesting case, with SCO alternately claiming that the copyrights to UNIX did get transferred to them, and that the copyrights should have been transferred to them. 'Judge Ted Stewart said, after the jury left to begin to deliberate, that in all his years on the bench, he's never seen such fine lawyering as in this case.' We're not going to find out the results until at least Tuesday, however, as one juror is taking a long weekend. Great lawyering notwithstanding, we can all hope next week that the Energizer bunny of all spurious lawsuits will finally go away."
