8. Simple language with a helper tool

There is a help function on our website.

This feature is called: Plain Language.

She comes from the company Eye-Able.

This function makes it easier to display text.

Here's how the help works:

Important to know:

This is not exactly the same as Plain Language.

Plain language is written by people.
