O inglês básico (em inglês, Basic English) é uma simplificação da língua inglesa construída a partir da análise de seu vocabulário e de sua gramática.
Seu vocabulário é composto por 850 palavras selecionadas pelo seu criador, Charles Kay Ogden, que descreve o idioma no livro Basic English: A General Introduction with Rules and Grammar, publicado em 1930.
Seu vocabulário é utilizado como guia para a edição de artigos na wikipédia em inglês simplificado.
A gramática do inglês básico é similar à do inglês padrão, porém com regras mais simples e pouquíssimas exceções. Nem todos os possíveis sentidos de cada palavra são permitidos, a fim de evitar ambigüidades e manter a simplicidade da língua. As regras de Ogden a seguir guiam o uso das 850 palavras oficiais garantindo um uso amplo, expressivo e fluente da língua.[1]
