I don't know the original source of this, but...

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.

As part of the negotiations, the British 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 troublesom "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like fotograph 20% shorter.

In the third year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage when more komplikated changes are possible.

Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always been a deterrent 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 fourth year people will be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v".

During ze fifz year, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords containing "ou" and after ze fifz year, ve wil hav a reil sensibl riten styl.

Zer vil be no more 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 wil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze forst plas.

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