It refers to the quality or state of being simple. Simple things are easy to understand and comprehend. Simplicity in writing and spoken language is always considered to be essential. Flamboyant language which employs usage of heavy and difficult words is quite difficult to comprehend for the layman. Herein is the importance of simplicity. In the words of Edward Sapir, “A logical analysis of reflexive usages in French shows, however, that this simplicity is an illusion and that, so far from helping the foreigner, it is more calculated to bother him.” Complexity is the antonym of simplicity. It refers to the state of being complex and mind-boggling. Complex problems, language etc. are quite difficult to understand and cause great confusion. Complex things end up in baffling people who deal with them. So, one should always emphasize on making things easy and simple, rather than aggravating them.
