Federal Armed Forces: Easy Language - all info about the subpage

The Federal Armed Forces are part of the state apparatus and as such want to be inclusive and shape progress. The easy language subpage is a good example of this, and our guide explains what it's all about.

Language doesn't have to be complicated: The Bundeswehr provides the proof.

In recent years, the Bundeswehr has had to endure a lot of criticism. The online presence shows itself unimpressed.

Federal Armed Forces: Information access for all thanks to simple language

The subpage with simple language is located at this address. There you will find:

• The deliberately simple language is aimed at people with reading or learning difficulties. In this way, all important information should be accessible across the board.
• The language consists largely of main sentences, complicated words are dispensed with, the contents are kept short and concise.
• Also the text layout is trimmed to clarity: Each sentence is in its own paragraph.

By the way, the Bundeswehr site is not the only site that resorts to this method. Other government sources also follow this approach, such as the Federal Ministry of Defense.
