OK, here's a fictional scenario, but I think it would be interesting to see your opinions and this may cause a good debate here.

"The European Union has ammended the new proposed constitution. This new proposal outlines that, from 2008, all member states will teach a new language, called "Europish" in schools.

What is it called outside schools?

This language will become a new official language of Europe

Europe isn't a something which has official langwidges.

and by 2050, it is hoped that this language will be spoken just as much as the second language of the country, such as French in France.

Eh? Last I heard French was still the first langwidge in France.

All member states will sign up to this as it is compulsory."

Opinions please......

My opinion is mostly that you don't know anything about how the EU works.

Des
doesn't know much, which is plenty
