Join STC’s Instructional Design & Learning SIG for a webinar on Thursday, 22 September, from 1:30-2:30 PM EDT (GMT-4). Which Word Should I Pick/Choose/Select/Designate? Why English Has So Many Words and How to Choose the Best Ones for Your Purpose is presented by Em Turner Chitty, B.A., M.A., M.P.A, of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, University of Tennessee English Language Institute in Knoxville, TN.
Using the history of the English language as a guide, Chitty explains the different functional levels of English and how English language speakers and writers do “intra-language translation.” Using this insight, you will be better able to produce clear and understandable English for the broadest possible audience.
