A Challenge for Software Makers!
It’s interesting. Some people can’t write straight English, and yet they are able to share with others and make them understand their important ideas particularly, through the internet. The topics and ideas they share are often times very important and relevant. We seek to totally understand them, yet, sometimes we just can’t follow the thoughts that were put out in writing. I think, we should devise some help for these kinds of articles. People near them should be able to help clarify the ideas, just like having a spelling checker in one’s personal computer.
The ideas that we seek to understand goes in total waste, if we continue not to be able to decode these ideas. Can someone please devise a program that automatically tells the writer, that the usual sentence construction defies the rules of English sentence construction, so that the writer can review or modify the sentence in order for it to be understandable and coherent? Perhaps, a software company can work on this project following the rules of the English language, so we are able to decode the messages, that we need to understand regardless of country of origin.
At one point in time, I was trying to research on a particular concern, and I was so happy to have come across an article that answered my topic search. As I read through the write up, I found out that the words were so cluttered, I could not make out even the ideas being put out. I could not believe , what seemed to be an answer to my search was something that was so difficult to decode and understand. If a spelling checker can be made, why not a sentence construction logic or an idea logic checker? This should be a good challenge to software makers, so that we understand the messages being put out in the internet, even if the English is not entirely grammatically correct to this day’s rules, since the language is evolving ,too.
