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, Her Majesty’s Government conceded that English
spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a five year phase
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, sivill servants
willresieve this news with joy. Also the hard “c” will be replaced with “k”. Not
only will this klear up konfusion, but typwriters 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. Government
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
difikultisand evrivon vil find it ezi tu understand ech ozer. Ze drem vil finali kum tru.

Megan has discovered Scooby Doo. She giggles her way through every episode and
thinks it’s even more amusing that her Mummy and Daddy used to watch it when they
were her age.
Scooby Doo is 35 years old this year with the first episode being screened in September
1969. The old “classics” really do stand the test of time.
