Why isn't the store Diskover and the file manager Eksplore tho? 🤔
One of the few I can enjoy is Boney M's Daddy Cool. Had to endure it for hours on a trip so I guess I had to enjoy it as a defense mechanism.

BookWyrm is a secondary source, so I don't think it's a good idea. Personally, I'd link to:
- The book's website, if there is (which usually just links to amazon)
- Wikipedia page
- OpenLibrary
As for where to buy books, I've recently heard of Libreture, which have DRM-free books (see other DRM-free book source), though its database might be lacking because it's rather new.

Translation note:
- NASA is an organization so its name isn't translated if not necessary.
- "Mars" whose translation is literally "Fire star", is a calque from Chinese
- "Photo" is literally "digital picture". Normally, this distinction is not important, but in this case it is to emphasize it is not a drawing. "Digital" is also a calque.
Pronunciation
Note for tones:
- level tone (a): /˧˧/
- rising tone (á): /˧˥/
- falling tone (à): /˥˩/

Grammar
Some notable features:
- 5 genders, named after the five phases in wǔxíng.
- Sentence punctuation is at the beginning.
- A glyph structure similar to Korean: built from individual letters.
- Agglutinative and has vowels, consonants, and tones as inflection unit.
Esperanto is still eurocentric. That is, it is only easy to learn because you already know English, and perhaps another European language. Lojban or toki pona would be a better option.
