“Good evening, everybody!” said the teacher, Donna. “Where is everybody?” That was sort of a daily
joke by Donna. Usually the class started with only two or three students present, and then filled up as the
minutes went by. It was summertime. Summer school was only eight weeks long. Class attendance was
always smaller than during fall and spring semesters.
“I don’t know, teacher. Maybe they late or no come,” said one student. “Maybe watching TV football
tonight.”
“Is there a soccer game tonight? It seems like there’s a soccer game every night. Oh, well. Let’s get
started, okay? We’re on page 36 in the workbook. Tonight we’re studying participles as adjectives. Students
are always confused when they learn about the present and past participles, so we will practice this a lot.
Tonight, we’re just going to practice the present participle.
“The present participle tells us what emotion or feeling the subject is causing. For example, ‘Grammar is
boring’ means that the subject – grammar – causes an emotion of boredom. If we say, ‘The movie is
interesting,’ we are saying that the movie causes a feeling of interest. If we say, ‘The roller coaster is
exciting,’ we are saying that the roller coaster causes a feeling of excitement. Any questions so far? Am I
confusing you? Is everyone confused?”
The classroom was quiet. Donna looked at blank faces. They were confused. She knew this would take a
while. But eventually, the faster students would grasp it, and then they would help the slower students. By
the end of the evening, most of the class would feel comfortable using the present participle.
Donna erased the board and put some new examples on it. She loved guiding her students through
difficult topics like this one. She always felt a little bit thrilled when the look of understanding came to their
faces.

Easy English?
English is an important global language, but thatdoesn't mean it is easy. Many experts have tried to
make English easier to learn, but they weren't always successful.
In 1930, Professor CK Ogden of Cambridge University invented Basic English. It had only 850 words
(and just eighteen verbs) and Ogden said most people could learn it in just thirty hours. The problem was
that people who learned Basic English could write and say simple messages, but they couldn't understand
the answers in ‘real’ English! It was also impossible to explain a word if it wasn't in the Basic English
word list.
RE Zachrisson, a university professor in Sweden, decided that the biggest problem for learners of
English was spelling, so he invented a language called Anglic. Anglic was similar to English, but with
much simpler spelling. ‘Father’ became ‘faadher’,‘new’ became ‘nue’ and ‘years’ became ‘yeerz’.
Unfortunately, for some students of English, Anglic never became popular.
Even easier is the language which ships’ captains use: it is called ‘Seaspeak’. Seaspeak uses a few
simple phrases for every possible situation. In Seaspeak, for example, you don't say,‘I didn't understand,
can you repeat that?" it is just, "Say again." No more grammar!
In the age of international communication through the Internet, a new form of English might appear.
A large number of the world's e-mails are in English and include examples of ‘NetLingo’ like OIC (Oh, I
see) and TTYL (Talk to you later)
l. What is the role of English?
2. When did Professor Ogden invent Basic English? How many words did it have?
5. What has appeared in the age of international communication through the Internet?
