AK> Simplification of English is a long life tendency.The
AK> simpler you speak the bigger auditory listens to you. ;)

But gaining a big audience is an evil purpose fit for
social-network parasites and like-collectors, software
giants, general money suckers, and vain people.  It breeds
generation upon generation of lazy, clueless, benighted,
tasteless, uncultured people unwilling to learn and nurtured
upon surrogates of art and knowledge. A creator or artist
that fawns upon his audience has betrayed himself. His work
is always false.

AK> In English a great lot of words sound similarly, but the
AK> context of the phrase usually gets the clue. Probably,
AK> not only the context, but even the "melody" of phrase.

I believe context, intonation, rhythm, and melody crucial to
all languages, yet it is a poor justifiction for vulgar
simplification of language itself to the detriment of its
beauty and expressiveness.
