Esperanto, the most widely-spoken constructed international auxiliary language, was the creation of Ludwik Lejzer Zamenhof, who first published it in 1887. Today Esperanto is estimated to have between 100,000 and 2,000,000 speakers worldwide. The most complete Esperanto dictionary is the "Plena Ilustrita Vortaro," which is available both online and in printed format; but since the PIV is entirely in Esperanto, the need for a modern Esperanto-to-English dictionary remains keen for many Esperantists. Paul Denisowski's "Esperanto-English Dictionary" can help fill a part of that need, on the basis of its sheer size alone, with more than 52,000 headwords. This extensive dictionary was compiled both from existing glossaries and from glossaries prepared by Denisowski himself, and it contains many words not usually found in smaller dictionaries, including an abundance of scientific terms, especially from the fields of medicine and mathematics. It is hoped that the publication of this dictionary will assist a new generation of Esperanto learners in their enjoyment of this unique language. -- Esperanto, la plej vaste parolata internacia planlingvo, estis la krea o de Ludwik Lejzer Zamenhof, kiu unue publikigis in en 1887. Hodia Esperanto la takse havas inter 100.000 is 2.000.000 da parolantoj tutmonde. La plej kompleta Esperanta vortaro estas la "Plena Ilustrita Vortaro," kiu estas disponebla amba rete kaj en presita formato, sed ar la PIV estas tute en Esperanto, la bezono por moderna Esperanta-angla vortaro restas akra por multaj esperantistoj. La "Esperanta-Angla Vortaro" de Paul Denisowski eble helpas plenigi parton de tiu bezono, almena surbaze de sia grandega amplekso, kun pli ol 52.000 kapvortoj. i tiu vasta vortaro estis kompilita uzante jam ekzistantajn glosarojn kaj anka multajn glosarojn, kiujn Denisowksi mem preparis, kaj i enhavas multe da vortoj malofte trovitaj en pli malgrandaj vortaroj, inkluzive de granda nombro da sciencaj terminoj, precipe el la fakoj de medicino kaj matematiko. Oni esperas ke la eldonado de i tiu vortaro helpos novan generacion de Esperantolernantoj en ilia uado de i tiu unika lingvo.
