- Companies, organizations
- Businesspeople around the world
- Students
- Children
- Adults who might find it hard to learn or read (including those with a learning disability)
- People who are learning English as a second language
Other people use this Wiki because the basic language helps them understand hard ideas or topics they do not know about.
