 ===== What this project is all about ... =====
-Forth would benefit greatly from an active community sharing sources and solutions. But our problem lies in the saying: **When you have seen one Forth, you have seen one Forth**.
+Forth would benefit greatly from an active community sharing sources and solutions.
-With this project we would like to embrace our differences. And start sharing, despite having all the different Forths-dialects.
+But our problem lies in the saying: **If you've seen one Forth, you've seen one Forth**.
+With this project we want to acknowledge our differences and start sharing despite the many different Forths dialects.
-The core idea of this project is to use a simple, generic version of Forth to spread ideas, algorithms, protocols, applications and hardware drivers. This generic version of Forth guarantees that it can be understood and used by (almost) everybody in the Forth-community.
