AliasSheep Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 Hey guys, anyone know if there are any Esperanto translations of any of Brandon's books (or any planned/ongoing translations)? Thanks
Mirdrim Posted December 14, 2016 Posted December 14, 2016 Just gonna take a wild guess on this one and say that's a big no..Esperanto is spoken by 1-2,000 people from birth, with only 2,000,000 speaking worldwide. The amount of time and money that would go into producing an Esperanto version would cost more than would be gained, when probably 99.9% of Esperanto speakers have a more common language they are fluent in.

I was betting on the chance that there would be fan translations. That's also a fair few speakers
Mirdrim Posted December 14, 2016 Posted December 14, 2016 I thought you meant an official translation..definite possibility that a fan might translate. Definitely a decent amount of speakers but compared to any other language it's just not plausible monetarily to pay for translation and production on the off chance that people are going to buy in Esperanto. But yeah, possible that a fan might.
