A better one for pirate blarney is Trezorinsulo, but it ain't free (and ain't in the ELNA catalog right now). Arr.

Thanks! When I didn't see Treasure Island at ELNA, I assumed it hadn't been translated yet. That seemed odd, because they have Kidnapped (another pirate story by the same author). Hopefully I can read all three and compile a glossary for next year.

Dankon. Kiam mi ne vidis Trezorinsulon cxe ELNA, mi supozis ke gxi ankoraux ne tradukigxis. Tio sxajnis stranga cxar ili havas Forkaptitan (alian piratan rakonton de la sama auxtoro). Espereble mi povos legi cxiujn cxi tri kaj kompili vortareton por la venonta jaro.
