COMMON WORD STORY 26 Why People COME TO AMERICA

This is a writing exercise using common words. I have collected a list of 17,000

words. From this I have chosen twenty words at random. The exercise is to write a story with
at least ten of them. I have included my story along with a translation into other words.

Here is the list:

  1. HUG
  2. ROW
  3. VISAGE
  4. NOBILITY
  5. PROCIUTO
  6. DENDRITE
  7. CROSS
  8. TRANSPIRATION
  9. MODIFY
  10. SLOPE
  11. NICHE
  12. INTEGRAL
  13. SCOOTER
  14. CRIME
  15. SCUFF
  16. JUDICIARY
  17. PASSENGER
  18. RORSCHACH TEST
  19. QUOTIDIAN
  20. DEMILITARIZE

Here is my story:

Many immigrants come into the USA illegally. Judical

policy has been modified to leave the boarder open; some would say
it is demilitarized; this is integral to their coming. Cranes have
taken out rows of fencing, aiding passenger traffic by foot,
car, even scooter.
You see their scuffed visages with a rugged nobility. They are
climbing a steep slope, looking for a niche in life.

Many travelers come into the USA illegally. Laws have been changed

to leave the boarder passable; some would say it is pacified; this is a
main element of their coming. Heavy machinery has taken down lines of barriers,
smoothing their traffic by foot, auto, scooter.
You see their roughed up faces with stark dignity. They are going up a
high hill, looking for a place in life.

FINAL THOUGHTS:

The English language is like an organ with many voices. With it you can

express stories, ideas and moods.
The list of 17,000 common words I’ve included here is a good start to
realize the range English has achieved.
