The European Commision has just announced an agreement
whereby English will be the official language of the Euopean 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 inprovement 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 uo 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 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.

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