Need Your Opinions re Simplified English (Can I quote you?)
Subject:Need Your Opinions re Simplified English (Can I quote you?) From:Robert Brown <moongarou -at- yahoo -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Thu, 30 May 2002 16:50:13 -0700 (PDT)
Hi all,
Do any of you have an opinion about using Simplified
or Controlled English?
What do you feel the impact is to you as a writer?
Do you feel it would help/harm your performance?
What do you think the cost/benefits are to your
audience?
I need this info as quickly as possible. Also if any
of you have a figure for money saved on translating
documents that were written in Simplified English and
can share those, I'd be very grateful.
Thanks!
Robert Brown
