Can We Please Stop Referring To The Simplified English Watchtower A The Dumbed Down Version

2tone,
You are rather naive about everything I've seen you post.
I would humbly suggest that you read the archives a lot before talking silly again.

Farkel - They now have two English versions. One they call "standard English," and the other they call "simplified English." They make pdf's available at www.jw.org

Let's call it the Newspeak version of the Watchtower!
Newspeak is closely based on English but has a greatly reduced and simplified vocabulary and grammar. This suits the totalitarian regime of the Party, whose aim is to make any alternative thinking—"thoughtcrime", or "crimethink" in the newest edition of Newspeak—impossible by removing any words or possible constructs which describe the ideas of freedom, rebellion and so on (From the Wiki article on "Newspeak")
