The Euro-Germanification of A2K

With the onset of the Single European Currency and a generally more integrated Europe, it has been decided by the European Union Commission that a single European language should be adopted. With this in mind a poll was carried out suggesting that German or English would be the preferred single language.

The European Union Commissioners today announced that, after considered debate, an agreement has finally been reached to adopt a single language for the European Union. The preferred language for all European communications will now be English rather than German which was the other possibility.

As part of the final negotiations, Her Majesty's Government conceded to the German representatives that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a five year plan proposed by the German Government to phase in what will be known as Euro-English.
