Please read slowly and carefully, preferably aloud. Euro English is

coming


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 steps 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 sensibl 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.

One doesn’t have to be a great astrologer to predict about Indian English, In about 10 years we too will adopt Euro English (as is the case with everything else)

Sherine,
Futurologists are not necessarily astrologers. Alvin Tffler is not.
To the astrologers I ask- can you predict and control the behaviour of the people around you?
If not, how do you claim to predict and control the behaviour of the mighty planets moving in distant space?
They fumble.
So there is no point to feel to be belittled before them. So cheer up.
