A friend of mine who sort-of speaks Esperanto helped me translate my
simple one-source-file scenario into that language. It sort-of works,
but some of the stuff got tricky. Do you handle input commands in
other languages? How? Since Amiga stuff was used more in Europe than
in North America, I got asked for German and Norwegian(?) versions
of it, but couldn't figure out how to properly handle commands where
the verb isn't at the start. My parser is pretty keyed on that. I
put out some questions on how to approach it, but didn't get any
useful suggestions back.

Any general thoughts in the group on how to handle input commands
where the verb isn't always the first word, and where the parser doesn't
know all of the words used in the command?

Don't design inefficiency in - it'll happen in the implementation.
