Just "eternal beginner"; not convinced that it's limited to meaning "eternal beginner with respect to Esperanto". —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 17:29, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
- I think that seems to be the most common meaning.
{{&lit}}could be added too. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 19:38, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
- Keep. I'm not even sure that an
{{&lit}}would be citable, but it is certainly a small minority.←₰-→Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 12:52, 23 February 2018 (UTC) - Keep. My sense is that this phrase almost always refers to an eternal beginner with respect to Esperanto. If I was reading a book that referred to a character as an eterna komencanto with respect to, say, piano, I would probably think the author was speaking somewhat metaphorically, intending to compare the character to the sort of Esperantist who never gets very good at the language. —Granger (talk · contribs) 12:03, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. Agreed. Any time a person uses "eterna komencanto" in reference to an activity other than Esperanto, it's still highly evocative of Esperanto culture. If anyone did that unintentionally, they would be a bad writer. פֿינצטערניש (talk) 14:16, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
