Challenge: can you write an essay using only words with 4 letters or more

next time you are feeling bored with school/uni/work/anything that requires writing or creative flair. try writing an entire piece of work using only words which have more than 4 letters.

it's really hard since the most common words that one uses such as and, the, or, but, in, on, as, one, for, of etc. are all less than 4 letters. a much easier task is to only use 3 letters or more since and and the are permitted.
 
I have enough trouble getting a good enough grade as it is never mind limiting me to 4 letter words only! You try writing a sytems analysis with only 4 letter words! Thank-you very much

Peace
 
hmm...

having absolutely no knowledge of systems analyisis, I think it would start something like this

"although systems formed during chaotic states were used inherently from basic principles, organised systems cannot deconstruct artificially.

I have no idea what that sentance means but it seems passable

anybody else want to have a go?
 
This post refrains from using words containing fewer than four letters. This writing style requires careful word selection. Should authors write using this method, they must often employ plurals, plus liberally select certain words, among them "this" plus "that." Writing like this, however, will appear less than impressive when your professor reads such fine prose. Therefore, students persuing academic excellence should employ more simple, logical writing styles because making your professor unhappy will yield grades with numerical values lower than anticipated. Since this post lacks purpose beyond proving possible that bored, cerebral, pensive individuals with some linguistic knowledge will accomplish that task presented above, this post's author will cease writing shortly. Understandably, this passage sounds contrived because stipulations presented above limit permissible word length.
 
Everyone agrees that Microsoft cannot continue their dominance over everything associated with computers. While nobody disputes this point, lawyers representing America's Justice Department believe that antitrust laws insist upon severe measures, including breaking Microsoft into multiple parts. Though this aforementioned case will undergo appeal, many believe that Microsoft should never have been found guilty originally.


Dang, writing like that requires much skill along with patience. Certainly frustrating!
 
?Down that hallway Mister,? pointing with extended finger, ?left door, right here.?
--Bellboy opens door, sets bags inside. Holds hand stretched, suggesting reward.

?Anything else? Need anything just buzz.? --bellboy whistles after being paid. Bellboy leaves before they could respond.

--Rich hotel guests await dinner. Bellboy?s shift almost over, sits waiting impatiently. Don?t deserve these hours, should stay with mother. Bellboy?s mother dying sick cancer death. Took this work after medical bills starting collecting.

?Pardon, hello? Come over here.? Hotel guest looking bellboy?s direction. Manager watching situation like weatherman over stormclouds brewing. Bellboy remains perfectly still. Manager?s bowels tense nervously. Guest grows angrier, starts to shout.




could go on and on. it is a good challenge for all creative writers
