Using English as the EU's official common language, would make things in Europe a lot easier. You could fill out forms in English everywhere, street signs would be in English, internet content would be in English.
Doesn't mean there couldn't be secondary local languages which are in use by people.
Although English should end up the language at universities and in schools.

You aren't even in the EU, why do you even care? You can keep talking in your local grammatically incorrect Bauernsprache as much as you like.
Andrew Baker
With Brexit the main languages in the EU legal system are going to be German and French
Austin Morris
>Irish >not a mother tongue in Ireland
xD
Hudson Morales
agree
Parker Morris
Malta and Ireland both use English. The rest of the member states will stay with English while France and Germany argue between themselves. Not like everything was in one, two, or three languages before anyways. Was always native, german and/or french, as well as english.
Brandon Morgan
Slovenia xD
Adam Peterson
fuck off with your barbaric language, EU was founded upon the diversity of European nations, we don't want to become like Anglos' (((melting pot))) of (((consumerism))). > t. Italian studying in Canada
Josiah Robinson
what's the first language of Luxembourg?
Jason Garcia
England doesn't have French as a second language everyone knows that. We have slowed down English as our second language to use when the listener can't understand normal English.
Liam Torres
Luxembourgish. If they any good they should be fluent in Luxembourgish, French, German, and English. Since the capital is more french most Portuguese and workers learn French since German is spoken in the NE and less so in the populated areas. German follows french pretty closely though.
Eli Stewart
A shitposting Leaf... now I have seen it all!
Jordan Brooks
The second language in Japan is English also
Jackson Nguyen
The spirit of Shiller is dead. Good job anglos.
Cooper Lee
>oy vey, why don't you adopt our language currency and politics?? It would make things easier in Europe. But we're not a federation haha.. Why would you think that?
Logan Brown
chinese and korean are the second languages
Ryan Murphy
>In Varietate Concordia >hey let's all have the same currency >hey let's all have the same economic policies >hey let's all have the same language People like you are the reason why the EU is a big failure
Jaxson Smith
>But we're not a federation haha Since when? What is the EU if not a Federation?
Samuel Nguyen
>The spirit of Shiller is dead. Good job anglos.
Think about it for a second. Why does it make sense for a mechanical engineer to study in Croatian or Romanian or Latvian or German? He will have to retrain himself to then work in an English language environment. Not to mention that there is literally no way for a non-local to study at the university, meaning the university will always remain provincial and cannot end up being a top notch university.
Ryan Bell
No, other languages are one of third language in university. I chose French, so I don't know Chinese and Korean.
Oliver Young
Why would Japanese learn foreign languages at all? Just don't let anyone into your country!!!
Brandon Howard
>étudier une langue morte Choix de patricien
Brody Morgan
>to then work in an English language environment >nd cannot end up being a top notch university Befor WW2 the language of science was german, few centuries. What happen? Why do you cannot create top universities in Frankfurt or Berlin? Anglos made good in destroying main concurrent in west Europe. When your country will infront of deadface, ask east germans and russians from eastern Prussia for help.
Aiden Turner
EU is an american project, made by US army. OFC we speak english.
Elijah Williams
please neck yourself you absolute fucking cuckold.
Bentley Scott
Zlovenia colonized!
Elijah Roberts
Our universities are essentially just mediocre mass graduation shitholes. We are shitting out engineers for the German economy, we are even telling them they shouldn't even try to go out into the world to make their fortune, we tell them to apply for jobs already 2-3 years before they graduate and then work part-time or as interns in those companies.
We just do not want to have top notch universities like the University of Birmingham or the University of Oklahoma.
Juan Mitchell
underrated beans on toast
Thomas Moore
>We just do not want to have top notch universities So what happened? Everything was in Germany. So you can do it. Why don't you do it? Where is top german since, technology etc? Why do you must learn english, not anglos must learn german?
Jordan Murphy
dont try to reason with cucks like him
Cooper Bennett
Understood, comrade. Are they a lot of you?
Matthew Edwards
>So what happened? Everything was in Germany. So you can do it. Why don't you do it? Do you remember that little thing called ww2? You won, we lost. We never recovered from you winning against us. Now our universities are local drone manufacturers.
Isaiah Smith
this is an English board you dumb cuck.
Colton Fisher
In some fields, German still is the language of reference. Like in orientalistics and ancient languages. In my own field, everything has to be published in English to reach a big audience. It's just that in post-WW2 America and England (that still had an empire back then) took over the world.
About universities: Before every election, every political party promises to spend more on educatoin, because that is soooo important today. After the elections, they have to cut the budget. Usually health and education go first. We've had broken furniture and leaking roofs at my university for years.Research still gets done, but you can only go so far if you can't afford reasonable equipment and don't have funds to hire student helpers or finance postgrads who work on doctoral thesises.
Bentley Myers
holy shit kek, you sure showed him.
Jason Wood
>teeen Top fucking kek
Adam Perez
Futhermore i consider that the EU must be destroyed.
Grayson Powell
>You won, we lost. So why does east germany keep the Shillers spirit? you dont?
Elijah Gomez
the world will speak english within three or four generations. the internet and all that follows will ensure this.
William Carter
Why do you care if you are not in?
Michael Stewart
As an Anglo, kindly go fuck yourself.
Europe's languages are a product of their people's history, they're swimming in it. Just because the Burgers didn't want to learn to speak to their new subjects doesn't mean I want my nation getting the side glances for it (Even at our worst, we never forced Europe to speak English). If you want a common language for Europeans, learn Latin or Greek.
Bentley Ward
>Europe's languages are a product of their people's history, they're swimming in it.
Translation: Europe is poor and weak because they are backwards orientated. They are rather poor and irrelevant than having a bit of English in their lives.
Got it!
Luke Lopez
>So why does east germany keep the Shillers spirit? It doesn't. I have lived in the East, they are even more cucked than the West. They are just poorer.
Ryder Nelson
i'm glad that my mother tongue is english and you're a fucking cuck
John Foster
>learn Latin or Greek. Nah - Old Church Slavonic
Christian Hughes
>Europe is poor and weak because they are backwards oriented
Good heavens, is that the time already?
Sebastian Carter
I wouldn't be against that either, as a regional language of sorts. But KrautCuck was talking about a Eu-wide Universal language. And Greek is the language that the western canon was founded in, including books like the bible. It's what the Romans translated their works into and the Byzantines wrote in for centuries. If we have to have a universal language for the whole of Europe, Greek would be my pick.
