33. Nouns in predicate relation with pronouns, or adjectives modifying
such pronouns, are made to agree with them in number:

Ni estas bonaj kaj felicxaj, we are good and happy.
Rozoj estas floroj, ill ne estas fruktoj,
roses are flowers, they are not fruits.
Gertrudo, vi estas bona, Gertrude, you are good.
Knabinoj, cxu vi estas felicxaj? Girls, are you happy?


CONJUGATION OF THE VERB.

34. Any pronoun may serve as the subject of a verb. The combination
of the verb with each of the personal pronouns in succession for its
subject, is called the "conjugation" of the verb. Following is the
conjugation of the present tense of "esti", and of "vidi":

mi estas = I am. mi vidas = I see.
vi estas = you are. vi vidas = you see.
li (sxi, gxi) estas = li (sxi, gxi) vidas :
he (she, it) is. he (she, it) sees.
ni estas = we are. ni vidas = we see.
vi estas = you (plural) are. vi vidas = you (plural) see.
ili estas = they are. ili vidas = they see.


VOCABULARY

al = to, toward. hodiaux = today.
