Yes Taamyu! this is the point. Actually FE (Functional English) is about the every day English, eused in order to perform different FUNCTIONS. So it is different from the Written or Formal English one studies usually in the Colleges etc.

Well, it seems the italics haven't yet got round to moving the thread.

Meanwhile, Kaiser Raza could quite easily re-post his question on Ask h2g2 A148907 .

It's quite a good question, just doesn't belong here.
