Que es le hokku vermente?
Le hokku como nos lo scrive hodie es un verso de tres lineas. Illo nos mostra le natura de un station de anno per pauc parolas:
Illo es vetule
Ab le dia de su creation;
Le espaventaaves.
Nyōfu
Isto es un verso de le autumno, que exprime le diminution de le energias de le vita que occurre in iste tempo de anno.
Pote tu leger lo que io scribe qui? Io spera que si. Io apprende Interlingua, ma io es novicio.
What is all this? Well, for some time I have noticed people from many countries translating the Hokku site via online translators. It is not possible for me to post in every language, but I hope to expand the number of people who can read here — gradually — by learning Interlingua, which is a kind of simplified language for communicating with those familiar with a language descended from Latin — a “romance” language (meaning “roman-ish”). If I can manage to learn enough Interlingua, I will be able to post both in English and Interlingua gradually, which will open the possibilites of reading this site to those with a background in any of a number of languages — Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Romanian, Romansch, and Catalan at least. That would expand the range of this site quite a bit.
We shall see how it goes. I have a lot of learning to do before I can write in Interlingua correctly and proficiently, so do not expect it to happen immediately.

There are also many other Interlingua sites on the Internet, such as:
