ceigered:On a sidetracked note, is it ok to put a schwa in between the 't' and 'r' in words like Patro, Patrino, tre, tro, trinken, because every-time I pronounce those words I feel as if I'm over-aspirating the 't' into the 'r' and turning the 'r' from an alveolar trill into an approximate (somewhere between the english approximate and the russian/polish trill).To me it's better to just pronounce the tr however they come out, than to put in a schwa. I'm sure a Russian/Polish trill is better than adding a schwa.

ceigered: is it ok to put a schwa in between the 't' and 'r'..There's no schwa in Esperanto. (I'll use a colon for it, ":"). While I imagine you would be understood if you said 'mia pat:rino kuiras tre bone', I would say that the right answer is, more practice.

Miland:I'm listening to Radio Verda right now in hope of doing that, but the speed of speaking is nowhere near as fast as I would have expected... Nonetheless, it sounds like greek to meceigered: is it ok to put a schwa in between the 't' and 'r'..There's no schwa in Esperanto. (I'll use a colon for it, ":").

(pun intended). But I'll surprised by the amount my head is picking up, and even if I'm not understanding it there is certainly a lot that sounds familiar one way or another. Miland (顯示個人資料) 2008年12月8日上午10:59:06

Here's the website. They broadcast on most days, and you can even download the broadcasts (from the Arkivo section) and store them for practice at a convenient time.

Miland:If you would like to practise listening to Esperanto spoken faster, I suggest you try Radio Poland.Beat ya to it, I think them and 'Tuj' (some podcast by AEA I think) were the first chunks of spoken esperanto I ever heard about (other than 'Ana Pana' which is not really worth mentioning).
