Write about how Orwell broke his own rules. Use this quotation from his essay as a starting point to think about what you want to write.
Pretend that the person reading your short essay does not have “Politics and the English Language” available. You need to introduce the essay and briefly tell what it is about. In the first sentence, skip the part about “political and economic causes” and talk about what political speech is doing to language and how Orwell suggested six rules to help our writing.
