Something else funny :

 

EURO-INGLISJ

Not yet announced is that the European Commission has recently decided that

English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German,

which dismayed the Germans since this was the original choice.

However, as part of the negotiations, Her Majesty's Government has conceded

that English spelling has some room for improvement and has accepted a 5-year

phase-in plan that would be known as Euro-English.

In the first year, 's' will replace the soft 'c'. Sertaintly, this will make

the sivil servants jump for joy. The hard 'c' will be dropped in favor of the

'k'. This should klear up konfusion and keyboards kan have one less letter.

There will be growing publik support in the sekond year when the troublesome

'ph' is replased with the 'f'. This will make words like 'fotograf' 20 %

shorter.

In the third year, publik akseptance of the new spelling kan be expekted to

reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. Governments will

enkorage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to

akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horible mes of the silent 'e' in

the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.

By the 4th year peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing 'th' with 'z'

and 'w' wiz 'v'.

During ze fifz year ze unesesary 'o' kan be dropd from vords kontaining 'ou'

and similar changes vud of kurs be aplid to ozer kombinations of leters. After

ze fifz yer ve vil hav a rali sensil ritn styl. Zer vil be no mor trubl or

difikultis and evriun vil find it ezi tu undrstand ech ozer.

Zen Z Drem Vil Finali Kum Tru !
