I think the following rules will cover most cases: (i) Never use a metaphor, simile or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print. (ii) Never use a long word where a short one will do. (iii) If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out. (iv) Never use the passive where you can use the active. (v) Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent. (vi) Break any of these rules sooner than say anything barbarous. –"Politics and the English Language,” George Orwell Write two to four sentences in which you identify Orwell’s purpose for writing and describe how he achieves that purpose. Include one or more examples from the text to support your ideas.
