Some modifications that seem intended to make the language easier are not simplifying […] but are ‘clarifying’, i.e., they add redundancy to the message by such means as increasing the substance, supplying material that is normally omitted, or separating elements normally fused in some way. Such modifications are repetition of words, reduplication within words, adding a subject you to imperatives, pronouncing carefully syllable, saying 'day after today' for 'tomorrow', or using full forms for contractions are examples of clarifying processes that occur in English BT and FT.
