Yeah it was a new word for me a couple weeks ago when I read that murder mystery. Even after a decade of learning Esperanto, I'm still coming across new terminology.
Many esperanto words are formed by reversing the sentence that explains the word. e.g a ship with flag = flagsxipo, the offspring of cats = katido. If we follow that logic to make up a words for "disgusting substance of partly melted snow", it could be something like negxdeligaparteajxacxo
But we don't need to make up a new word like that when degelaĵo is already in dictionaries. Esperanto isn't a Scrabble game where we're trying to use more tiles. If there is an established word for something, that's what we should memorize and only on rare occasions like for poetry should we coin a phrase with something new.
@@ExploringEsperanto I totally agree! My point is that some of the words in Esperanto seem to be a "best alternative" because the best word is already taken to have a different meaning, Like e.g. sludge, which can be described as "ice substance", but maybe, since glaciajxo already meant ice cream, sludge became "thaw substance" instead. Imagine that ice cream had got the probably better describing word "frostkremo" = "frozen cream". Would glaciajxo then have been the word that meant sludge, or would deligajxo have been the chosen word for sludge anyway?
Mi amas vidi la georgian negxon! Dank' al vi kaj Kejti, e-istoj, usonaj e-istoj devas esti kontraux landoj kaj sxtatoj kiuj ne farbas homaj rajtoj por cxiuj (Rusio, cxinio, kaj la isreal-hxamas militio)
Dankon pro via instruo. Ĝi estas kaj helpa kaj klariga.
I love this kind of videos. For a komencanto from Portugala kiu komprenas la anglan. This is a mojosan leciono 🙇
Dankon!
'It's the thawed that counts.' I love his plays on words.
Dankon, Derek!
Interesting! Gratulon!
Thanks!
Kiel kutime, bonega lerniga leciono...😊😊
Neat, I'd not heard flako before. I've always used guto. I'm pretty sure I came across it in La Hobito.
Guto means a drop. If you spill an empty glass of water, there may still be a few gutoj, but definitely not a flako.

Meanwhile up in Toccoa, GA I still have ice and snow in my yard!
My friend's family lives up there and I've enjoyed boat rides and jet skiing with them there in the summer. Bundle up!

I always have to be careful with 'degeli'... I'm always tempted to say 'deĝeli' instead (and 'deĝeli' isn't even a word at all).
The way I remember to use a hard R is that I'm trying to "dig out" my car from the snowbank as I wait for the snow to melt.
Negxfloko... cxu negxero eblus? Modifajxo: Jes, mi scribis cxi tion antaux audi gxin en la video
