Esperanto vocabulary
The word base of Esperanto was originally defined by ''Lingvo internacia'', published by Zamenhof in 1887. It contained some 900 root words. The rules of the language allow speakers to borrow words as needed, recommending only that they look for the most international words, and that they borrow one basic word and derive others from it, rather than borrowing many words with related meanings. In 1894, Zamenhof published the first Esperanto dictionary, ''Universala vortaro'', which was written in five languages and supplied a larger set of root words.
Since then, many words have been borrowed from other languages, primarily those of Western Europe. In recent decades, most of the new borrowings or coinages have been technical or scientific terms; terms in everyday use are more likely to be derived from existing words (for example ''komputilo'' (computer ), from ''komputi'' (compute )), or extending them to cover new meanings (for example ''muso'' (mouse ), now also signifies a computer input device, as in English). There are frequent debates among Esperanto speakers about whether a particular borrowing is justified or whether the need can be met by derivation or extending the meaning of existing words.
== Origins ==
(詳細はconstructed languages such as Interlingua, which take words ''en masse'' from their source languages with little internal derivation, and ''a priori'' conlangs such as Solresol, in which the words have no historical connection to other languages. In Esperanto, root words are borrowed and retain much of the form of their source language, whether the phonetic form (''eks-'' from ''ex-'') or orthographic form (''teamo'' from ''team''). However, each root can then form dozens of derivations that may bear little resemblance to equivalent words in the source languages, such as ''registaro'' (government), which is derived from the Latinate root ''reg'' (to rule).
