In a message dated 11/4/2015 7:35:08 A.M. Eastern Standard Time,
omarkusto@xxxxxxxxx lists the five easy lessons which the original tutor forgot
to
list:

"1. implicature
2. implicature
3. implicature
4. implicature
5. implicature"

The implicature seems to be that one easy lesson may need all we need, like
John Lennon thought, love ("All you need is love; love is all you need --
she love you yeah yeah yeah").

The use of 'lessons' in publications, and the numbering of them is
Academese, and it may well do to review the literature as how stuff is taught
in
how many lessons. The number of lessons varies.

This is the first page hit from Google books:

--- Apparently, the largest number is in teaching your child to read -- 100
lessons -- But I suppose someone spoke about how to ... in ONE easy

One problem about O. K's list is that it perhaps should go

1. implicature
2. implicature
3. implicature
4. implicature
5. disimplicature

just to animate the learning process?

Cheers,

Speranza
