A Must Read for a silly laugh

Enjoy your English while you can..... 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.

Needless to say (I'm saying it anyway!), my "spell checker" blew a fuse on

this one!

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".

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 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 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.

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