About the Esperanto Alphabet

The Esperanto alphabet consists of 28 letters, each representing a single sound. It includes six letters with circumflex accents (ĉ, ĝ, ĥ, ĵ, ŝ, ŭ) that are unique to Esperanto. The alphabet is completely phonetic - each letter always represents the same sound. Esperanto is a constructed international auxiliary language created by L. L. Zamenhof in 1887.

History

The Esperanto alphabet was created by L. L. Zamenhof in 1887 as part of his international auxiliary language project. He designed it to be simple, phonetic, and easy to learn. The alphabet uses Latin letters with diacritics to represent sounds from various European languages. It has remained unchanged since its creation.
