New European Rules - Spelling!
 

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

As part of the negotiations, Her Majesty's 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".

The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of the "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 the "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.

In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expected 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 peopl 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 containing "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.

He he :lol: . Very funny.

It is a joke right?

I hope so crystal!! It has taken me a long time to learn the spelling that we have got. lol :lol: :oops:

You're not sure?! 8O OMG The world's gone crazy if it's not! I refuse to change how I spell! Those foreigners just aren't trying! (No offense to all the non-english speaking people on the site. In fact I'm very very very sorry.)

sounds funny!! Maybe it is the truth! :D Sounds fun!!

Very funny :D

If that was the truth i can tell u what the eurpean union can do with their rules, i tink was should be out, birtian shud stand alone

Well the European Union told us that we had to have straight cucumbers and that our bananas had to be all the same size, so who knows, perhaps it is true :roll: 8O

Nah...........it's a joke, but who knows what they might think up for us in the future. :devil: :lmao:

It already annoys me, the people who cannot spell properly on bords like these. If its the odd word, then thats ok. But not text abbreviations, thats just laziness. :cry:

We are not hindered here, use the space!!!!!!!!

People who cannot spell.... euh... there are people from other countries here... like me. I know some english, can speak it well, but to write... sometimes it is hard. Don't know how to write words.

I think it is very hard and strange that English is the most common language.... that is annoying me very much.
