Language Pollution
Dear Editor,
You can find language pollution whenever you open a newspaper, turn on your TV set,or listen to a radio. Language pollution exists almost everywhere and usually can be seen in the following places:
1. Chinese characters are written in the complex form. Although simplified Chinese characters were accepted for use years ago, it seems that more and more peopie like Chinese characters written in the complex form.
2. Many goods are produced in China but carry foreign names, which sound strange and have no meaning at all.
3. Words and expressions being used have a bad meaning. "Ba", which means bully in Chinese, is one example.Now there are a lot of goods, restaurants even factories or films, with "Ba" in their names.
4. There are too many incorrect grammatical expressions. Some TV play series have strange names and incorrect grammatical structures. "Ai ni mei shang liang", which means "1 love you without consulting", is grammatically incorrect and this kind of expression is now becoming popular.
Some language experts point out that language pollution must be done away with, which is an idea shared by myself and many others.

语言污染
亲爱的编辑： ，
每当你打开报纸、看电视、或听收音机，你就会发现语言污染。语言污染几乎无处不在，通常可以在以下地方看到：
1．繁体汉字的使用。虽然很多年前简体字已被接受使用，但似乎越开越多的人对繁体汉字青睐有加。
2．中国产品起洋名。这些名字听来怪异且毫无意义。
3．贬义词汇、表达的使用。例如“霸”，在汉语里表示恃强凌弱的人，而现在，很多产品、餐馆甚至工厂或电影都以“霸”字命名。
4．大量语法上错误的表达。一些电视连续剧的名字不但奇怪，且语法不通。“爱你没商量”意思是“我没跟你商量就爱上了你”，这在语法上是不正确的，但这种表达现在却正成为一种时尚。
一些语言专家指出语言污染必须消除，我和其他许多人都赞同这一观点。
