<p style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal">I receive a weekly email
from <a href="http://elcastellano.org/" target="_blank">elcastellano.org</a>
which has a variety of language news. The current issue has an article about
Globish – or Global English.</p>
<p style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal">The author says that
Globish consists of about 1500 words and a simplified grammar. I’ve attached a
link to the original article in Spanish.</p>
