    Well…if you’re learning English as a foreign language, I can see how this can ease the learning process. It’s a useful tool in that case, but afterwards, it’s important to read and understand the original text.

      If you’re learning English as a foreign language, then you shouldn’t be reading The Great Gatsby.
