Mission Statement for this website:

I wish to promote the use of the system of Basic English developed by C.K.Ogden. The teaching of English as a second language is a very great business. And the learning of English as a second language is hard. With Basic English the teaching and the learning might be as cheap and quick as possible.


Brief History of Basic English:

Basic is the first letters of the words British,American,Scientific,International and Commercial. Basic English is a constructed language which at the first level is limited to 850 words and a half dozen rules of grammar. And then the special uses and the expanded uses of each word are given so the entire system is given in a little book such as 'The ABC of Basic English' of less than two hundred pages and a summary of the complete system is put on one page. A good learner can do the entire system in a month and a half and be able read and understand all the ideas necessary to normal life which are put in Basic.
I know that many people want to learn English to talk and to understand the speaking of English. There are not many  who have English as a first language who put their ideas in words at the most simple level. I hope to use the apparatus of the internet to make available for everyone examples of Basic and to give a place for talk.
