But it’s not French.
Saw this over at Jigsaw’s Thoughts.
The EU has decided to take English as their official inter-governmental language. The other frontrunner was German.
Personally, I just can’t see France, England, Poland, the Netherlands, or Belgium voluntarily speaking German for official communications. Just a feeling.
UPDATE – OK, this was a joke that I took as snark. Must have been sleep or something. It’s still funny.
