Hi Venantius
Thanks for your kind reply. Do bear in mind that I have been a teacher for
40 plus years from primary, secondary, further, to 33 years in university
education. Besides my subject teaching, I have taught English (part-time and
voluntarily) to hundreds barely literate (and numerate) Brits. But more
importantly, I have come across many impediments to pretty intelligent adult
students who can be helped if we can figure out exactly what is causing the
problem. Some day I would like to write a small booklet on these kind of
issues. The problems are truly unexpected and fascinating.
I am glad you have been helpful re Eric but regarding the computers that
will change the spoken word for the written one instantaneously, (after
first understanding a particular person's style, intonation etc) these have
been around for at least ten years. However, they cannot deal with a lack of
clear structure. One particular make I recommended to students was called
the Dragon but the software would be much more developed now and well beyond
what I had known.
Finally Venantius, I have to say that your written word is impressive.
Where/how did you pick up the craft and where are you located?
Regards
Cornel

Hello Cornel,
Thanks for taking things in good spirit. Often Goanet discussions tend
to be extremely layered, and I may not be privvy to past discourses.
Besides, we all have our quirks, including me.
I believe your use of amanuensis is a first on Goanet...,
Venantius
