The EU reforms English Spelling
(欧盟英语拼写改革记)
Having chosen English as a preferred language in the
European Union (EU), the European Parliament has
commissioned a feasibility study in ways of improving
efficience in communications among government
departments. European officiels have pointed out that
English spelling is unnecessarily difficult. For
example: cough, plough, here, hear, bow, bough,
through and thorough. What is clearly needed is a
phased program of changes to iron out these anomalies.
The program would be administered by a committee of
top-level staff chosen by the participating nations.
第一年: 从 S 到 C
In the first year, for example, the committee might
suggest using "s" instead of soft "c". Sertainly,
sivil servants in all sities would resieve this news
with joy. The hard "c" could be replaced by "k",
sinse both letters are pronounsed alike. This would
not only klear up konfusion in the minds of klerikal
workers, but typewriters and keyboards kould be made
with one less letter, a significant savings.
第二年: 从 PH 到 F
In the sekond year, bekause of growing enthusiasm,
it kould be announced that the troublesome "ph",
would henseforth be written "f". This would make
words like "fotograf" twenty persent shorter in
print.
第三年: 消除双写 和 结尾 E
In the third year, publik akseptanse of the new
spelling kan be expekted to reash the stage where
more komplikated shanges are possible. Governments
would encourage the removal of double letters which
have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. We
would al agre that the horible mes of silent "e"s
in the languag is disgrasful. Therefor, we kould
drop thes and kontinu to read and writ as though
nothing had hapened.
第四年: 从 TH 到 Z, W 到 V
By this time it would be four years sins the skem
began and people would be reseptiv to steps sush
as replasing "th" by "z". Perhaps zen ze funktion
of "w" kould be taken on the "v" vitsh is, after
al, half the "w" anivay.
第五年: 消除 ou 里的 o
Finally, ze unesesary "o" kuld be dropd from vords
kontaining "u". Similar arguments vud of kors be
aplid to ozer kombinations of leters. Kontinuing
zis proses yer aftr yer, ve vud eventuli hav a
reli sensibl riten stil.
Aftr tventi yers zer vud be no mor trubls or
difikultis and evrion vud fin it ezi tu understan
esh ozer. Ze drems of ze EU vud finali kum tru.
Vud dis komplikat maters for yu?
