Сочинение: Моя семья. Трудность по переводу и грамматике. Help! =)

[ibelk]

There are words for that: kindergarten or preschool

"special school" sounds funny

Yes, but there are no such words in Basic English:http://ogden.basic-english.org/words.html
Too many phrases in Basic English must sound somewhat funny to a native English speaker, I am afraid.

What's the point of learning that though? I don't get it. I mean aside from being an interesting experiment.
