- gumby 5y agoYea, I was wondering what the differences were when I read this article. I hadn’t previously heard about Minimal English, while I had heard of Simple English.
- mananaysiempre 5y agoThere’s also ASD-STE100[1], a standard apparently for technical documentation and ATC communcation(?), though while it is designed to assist ESL learners, it probably doesn’t exactly count as simple from a native reading-level perspective. Also, this is the second[2] thread today that merits a mention of Steele’s Growing a language[3]!
