Sep 7, 2016 at 14:46 comment added Dewi Morgan It took a million dollars to create a message as simple as "don't dig here". I suspect a simple dictionary is possible, with diagrams and a simple language. I'd go for spreading dictionary-plaques throughout the world as building tools, to the point where they become ubiquitous. So, for example, subsidize bricks and concrete slabs and formers to have a word or phrase and an accompanying diagram, so they become the cheapest building materials, and every building becomes a dictionary clad in plaster.
