Yes plain English is the best. How do foreigners cope, but how do we cope with foreign languages? I don't thnk Esperanto is the answer, and I don't know if there is a correct answer.Even the daily papers seem to use language from senior infants (and that's probably unfair to senior infants!), incorrect spelling, little or no punctuation, sentences without verbs, grammatical errors, the list just goes on and on.
