Martyn,
Do you have any more on controlled English? The topic came up last year some
time, but I haven't heard or seen anything on it since.
BTW, we're in agreement on the use of Latin borrowings as well; I just like to
stay away from proclaiming an absolute ban on their usage. (Always avoid
absolutes--and alliteration. ;-)
