About this Page : wordpic.html -- An example of putting Basic English Words in Pictures. Ogden's largest category of words are things. Many are picturable words and it is only natural that these words be pictured on the web. The Basic English Institute is seeking volunteers to work on this project. Add pictures, animation, sound : there is no limit to opportunities. Last updated on Oct 20, 2004
