Talking to people in Simple English can be made easier with pictures.

Simple English is English for simple people.

Some people, like the young, people with learning differences, people whose mother language is not English, and people of different ethnicities, may have difficulty understanding words that native English-speakers understand, including memes (things people find funny to repeat over and over). Simple English is a way to talk to people without making them feel bad right away.

Used right, Simple English is a great way to convey complex concepts to new members, as well as a good means of condescension (telling someone how stupid they are in an indirect way). It is best used towards people who have a high opinion of themselves. Using simple English makes them feel stupid, and asspie rage may develop.

  4. Make it clear to your listener that Simple English is being used for their benefit.
