The European  Union commissioners  have announced  that agreement  has
been reached to adopt English  as the preferred language for  European
communications, 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
five-year phased plan for what will be known as EuroEnglish (Euro  for
short).

In  the  first  year,  "s"  will  be  used  instead  of  the soft "c".
Sertainly, sivil servants will resieve this news with joy.  Also,  the
hard  "c"  will  be  replaced  with  "k".  Not only will this klear up
konfusion, but typewriters kan have one less letter.

There will be growing publik  enthusiasm in the sekond year,  when the
troublesome "ph" will  be replaced by  "f". This will  make words like
"fotograf" 20 per sent shorter.

In  the  third  year,  publik  akseptanse  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  silent  "e"s  in  the  languag   is
disgrasful, and they would go.

By the fourth year, peopl wil  be reseptiv to steps such as  replasing
"th" by z" and "w" by " v".

During  ze  fifz  year,  ze  unesesary  "o"  kan  be  dropd from vords
kontaining "ou",   and similar changes  vud of kors  be aplid to  ozer
kombinations of leters.

After zis fifz yer, ve vil hav  a reli sensibl riten styl. Zer vil  be
no mor trubls or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu  understand
ech ozer.

Ze drem vil finali kum tru.
