Hi, Peter.

Although we are not a dating service, I hope we can help you!  Start
by going to our home page at http://lingua-franca-nova.net/ where you
will find introductions in several languages, as well as "lfn for
travellers" to give you the very basics.

There are two approaches to learning more.  One is the tutorial at
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Lingua_Franca_Nova . The other is via
our wiki at http://lfn.wikia.com/wiki/Paje_xef, where you can go to
our "gramatica", use our 'disionario", and try reading some
articles.  Please understand that a lot of our materials have errors
in them - an unfortunate result of most of us being beginners, and no
one being totally fluent!

I hope this helps!

George
