Re: English the Official Language of the European Union

.
Just produce the exact same song in the great grand master proof! ROCK AND ROLL!
I rest my case, English wins hands down.

I speak Francais, Espanol, English, some Deutcsh, some Italiano, and I have touched Ruski.
I hear oriental languages, and middle-east ones. That alone, has me shun them.
French my native language is ok, but sucks in conjugation.
Spanish, same as French, but too many 'O's
Deutcsh, burn these hieroglyphics in a no ash oven, that will work.
Italiano, don't wanna sing while I talk.
Ruski, ummm... too slavic... it will become a dead tongue as latin and greek

English contains many languages already and assimilates then wonderfully.
It keeps its integrity while it incorporates the foreign words with their own touch.
Leave it the <blank> alone.

...on the other hand
Let's pretend that this is not a joke but a true attempt at improving a language to its next level

that's crap... a K there would hurt
c better be the 'kuh' consonant not horrible k. so k is the one letter less if anything

e...silnt or not can b lft out as th dfault sound but then you cannot get rid of double consonants or you will not know how the i will sound see the diFFerence.

Silent e is NOT silent, it elonnnnnnnnnnnnnnngates the sound just enough to make it sound right.

There is much more to it than what I just brought up... Diphthong - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

...and actually, although the British accent is tops, when it comes to more practicality the American version of English has its merit.

In the end the best language will win on its own merits... and it is rather obvious, now, on Earth, that English has won that battle.
