Restricted English 
− constrained uses of language when little or no 
linguistic variation is permitted. In these cases special rules are created by 
man to be consciously learned and used. These rules control everything that 
can be said. According to Crystal restricted varieties appear both in 
domestic and occupational spheres and include the following types: 
a) knitwrite in books on knitting; 
b) cookwrite in recipe books; 
c) congratulatory messages; 
d) newspaper announcements; 
e) newspaper headlines; 
f) sportscasting scores; 
g) airspeak, the language of air traffic control; 
h) emergencyspeak, the language for the emergency services; 
i) e-mail variety, etc. 
Rhetoric 
− 1. the art or science of all specialized literary-uses of language in 
prose or verse, including the figures of speech; 2. the art of using language 
effectively in speaking or writing; 3. artificial eloquence. 
Rhetorical 
− using or characterised by rhetoric. Rhetorical question is an 
affirmative or negative statement which only assumes the form of a 
question. The speaker never doubts what kind of answer to his question can 
be expected, and the con-elusion is left with the hearer: 
e.g. Is this belief from heaven be sent,
Is such be Nature’s holy plan,
Have I not reason to lament
What man has done of man?
(Wordsworth)
 
Rhyme 
− a regular recurrence of corresponding sounds at the ends of lines 
in verse. 
Rhythm 
− 1. a regular recurrence of elements in a system of motion: the 
rhythm of speech, dancing music, etc.; 2. an effect of ordered movement in 
a work of art, literature, drama, etc. attained through patterns in the timing,
