Talk:Esperanto/Root chart

Pervious method:

  1. Add the words from Word index (eta 1 mo)
    • do not include proper nouns
    • do not include compound words
  2. categorize roots as (eta +1 mo)
    • 100 basic (excluding pronouns, correlatives, numbers, and affixes) (required for basic Esperanto communication: basic body parts, basic actions basic emotions, colors, ect)
    • 500 standard (required for Esperanto fluency)
    • X advanced (requiring knowledge of a scientific genre)
  3. complete the chart using words from the English language (eta +2 mo)

Due to further research and seeing a vast number of different dictionaries, yet still existing a need for it to be tabled I have decided to use [1]'s dictionary. for step 1. It will be more efficient (easier & left with a sort-able list/dataset....) to make a script to pull the relevant english information out so until that's complete this table is on hold Ceneezer (discusscontribs) 07:55, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Once complete this vocabulary will be named the New Revised Standard Edition (NRSV) Eperanto

A pronoun set for scientific/advanced roots will be created using û:

ûa
Art
ûaz
Astronomy
ûab
Biology
ûac
Chemistry
ûag
Ecology
ûam
Mathematics
ûap
Physics

Issues[edit source]

There’re still a few issues with the list as given. The minor of these are:

Then, there’re a couple of more significant ones:

  • the articles in Wikipedias (and Esperanta Vikipedio isn’t an exception) are named after concepts, and these are generally expressed as words or combinations of words; I could hardly imagine an article with a bare root as its title! therefore, the [[w:eo:abat]] approach is unlikely to work well (if at all);
  • and why exactly is this project not carried on Wiktionary? They seem to already have a whole lot categories related to la lingvo internacia, such as, say, words approved by the Akademio de Esperanto or Esperanto male roots.

Hope the above could be a nice thing to ponder on.
