Title: Euro language?
Post by: Doorman on July 19, 2006, 01:18:38 PM
This is probably old hat, but I've only just come across it so no "it's already been posted here 'linky linky'" posts thank you. OK Peter? :narnar:




The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English  will be the official language of the European Union rather than German,  which was the other possibility.

As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English  spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in  plan that would become known as "Euro-English".


In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will  make  the sivil servants jump with joy.


The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up  konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter.


There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the  troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like  fotograf 20% shorter.


In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to  reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible.


Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have   always  ben a deterent to akurate speling.


Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent "e" in the languag  is  disgrasful and it should go away.


By the 4th yer people wil be reseptiv to st eps such as replasing "th"  with  "z" and "w" with "v".


During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining  "ou" and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensi bl riten styl.


Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu  understand ech oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru.


Und efter ze fifz yer, ve vil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze  forst plas.



If zis mad you smil, pleas pas on to oza pepl.
