@francen05 I have very mixed feelings too 🙂

For me, it is not completely clear that the Union needs a single, unifying language if it wants to become... Become what? I am not sure, and we, collectively, very much are not sure, what we want the Union become. To be discussed...

I guess we may agree that 'Union English' is emerging and some form it will be with us - with variants.

@xChaos , I would suggest we reach some agreements or understandings and then built on them the more elaborate structures. For expample, regarding the notion 'Union English'. Here, with creating neologism, my English capacity is weak. I am quite happy with 'unijní angličtina'; but I am quite unsure how to transpose that to English. Let us use 'Union English' for now.

Yes 🙂

Then, if you are willing to read Czech and Italian and Spanish and other Union languages through automatic translation, I would prefere the experiment with hybridity. If not, it is also completely ok for me to stay with "my" English 🙂

Your choice: (1) French - Czech hybrid. (2) English.

@bobojp ,

Good. First: the language issue. It is connected to: the following three 'accounts' are all me, the same person behind the keyboard:

What is your preferred language for expressing yourself? FR or EN?
