Re: Small translation needed

Thank you Arnold and Sebastian!

Sebastian is a semi-troll who favors other constructed languages as the
international language. He's also not a native speaker of English.
Since there are so few Occidental speakers in the world, he torments us
with it from time to time. But we tolerate him.

FYI the languages he uses are:

Occidental:
Nu a un plu interessant exemple: li lettre 'ĥ' utilisat in Esperanto, un
lingue tal idealistic e charmant in su rusticitá.

Volapuk:
Nu a sam nitedikum: tonat 'ĥ' pageböl in Sperantapük, pük vemo dialimik e
löföfik in neskil onik.

Esperanto:
Nun al pli interesa ekzemplo: la litero 'ĥ' uzata en Esperanto, lingvo tiel
idealista kaj ĉarma en sia impeto.

Impeto means "impetus", hardly a suitable translation.

I propose Arnold Victor's translation, but with "malgracieco" or
"maleleganteco" for awkwardness. Unfortunately I disagree with the
statement, but there you have it.
