| Another way is to write the more difficult words, but explain what they mean in parentheses, "(" and ")", if they cannot be linked. For example, write "blood, toil (hard work), tears, and sweat". | | Another way is to write the more difficult words, but explain what they mean in parentheses, "(" and ")", if they cannot be linked.

| | Hello |
| # Write your words normally, as you would in speaking to ordinary people.
| |
| # Look for your words in the word lists. Try to use the simplest word list:
| |
| ## In Basic English BE 850 (pictures)
| |
| ## In Basic English BE 1500.
| |
| ## In VOA Special English Word Book.
| |
| ## If a word is a name, idiomatic (the meaning of the words is not clear from the roots), or jargon (special words used by experts), then it should be described in more detail. Linking to an article about the word can also help.
| |
| ##: ''Stephen Hawking was a cosmologist—someone who studies the structure of the universe (stars and space).''
| |
| ## Not all words can have a good encyclopedia article written about them. To link to the dictionary definition of a word rather than an encyclopedic article, link to the Indian English Wiktionary using a link like ''<nowiki>[[</nowiki>wikt:this'''''|''''']]'' (put your word in place of "this"). For a more complex definition, you may also link to the [[:en:wikt:Main Page|English Wiktionary]] like this:'' <nowiki>[[</nowiki>:en:wikt:this'''''|''''']]''.
| |
| # Change to active voice. Example: change from "The bird was eaten by the cat." (passive voice) to "The cat ate the bird."
| |
| # Look for a Basic English verb in past, present or future only.
| |
| # For writing specially to science or trade, do as asked by the process of AECMA Simplified English (see ''Other websites'' below for International Aerospace Maintenance Language).
| |
| #After finishing the article, check to have at least one link (to another article in Bharatpedia) and one Interwiki link (to a version of Bharatpedia in another language). The first is so the article is not a dead-end article, and the second is so that robots can fill in all the missing links to other language versions.
