There are a lot of Englishes spoken in the world today, and most commonly used are the American and the British. To unify their spellings and to simplify the phonetic aspect of the languages there is an idea of the English Language Central Commission (ELCC) to remove letter “z” from the English alphabet. According to the ELCC, words that started with a “z” will now start with an “x”: zero becomes xero, zoo becomes xoo, zone becomes xone, zodiac becomes xodiac. Words that have a “z” with the “s” sound will be written with the “s”: visualize becomes visualise, analyze becomes analyse, materialize becomes materialise.
Will this change really simplify the English language, or will it make things more confusing?
