Mission Esperanto - Day 3 (Participles - La participoj)

Saluton, everyone!
I actually maintained to discover lots of grammar features in Esperanto today!
Therefore, I'm going to make several posts (by days) explaining them.
Well, the first one is the active and passive participles subject - words which present an action as a noun or adjective.
Participles are actually the word representing the time (like 'i' for the past and etc.) combined with letters for active and passive.

Past: int (past active participle), it (past passive participle)
Present: ant (present active participle), at (present passive participle)
Future: ont (future active participle), ot (future passive participle)
The structure: Stem + participle conjugation + ending (a / o / e)

Ex.
Pensante
(pensi - to think | ant - present active participle | e - adverb)
= While thinking




Murdita persono
(murdi - to murder | it - past passive participle | a - adjective)
= A person who was murdered



Rigardonto
(rigardi - to watch | ont - future active participle  | o - noun)
= One who will watch


Bonus: The etymology of the word Esperanto
Lazarus Ludwig Zamenhof once signed his book as "Doktoro Esperanto".

Esperanto
(esperi - to hope | ant - present active participle  | o - noun)
= One who hopes
This word, "Esperanto", is actually how the language is called nowadays.

Mission Esperanto: Day 1

Saluton, everyone!
I don't have much to say, to be honest. I joined a few websites and a course in order to find some good resources so I can have information about Esperanto.
So these are the things I learnt today:

• Basic endings: o (nouns), a (adjectives)  e (adverbs) , -j (a plural ending), n (an ending for objects).
• Basic verb endings: i (infinitives), is (past), as (present), os (future), us (conditional).

(Today was meant to be a day for learning some basic features only.
It's going to be more interesting now, alright :)

Me and this blog

Well, first of all, this blog is actually a lingual diary. I’ve decided in the far past to help myself learning languages by putting on challenges. This idea didn’t go so well, because I didn’t have anyone to share my progress with. I also didn’t think that such an idea is going to work right, so I turned out keeping it as a dawning dream, I’d say. After seeing a huge amount of people using the power of oneself’s blog to help them reach their targets, this idea suddenly regained reviving. First, I'd like to learn Japanese, Esperanto, Dutch and English, for mine isn't too perfect. I also have plans for German, Yiddish and so on, but I decided to deal with these first. My first mission is:

• Being able to make a fluent converstaion in Esperanto.
