officially renewed The alphabet with two letters About the end of the year and the change is included in the new basic text spelling to suit the new modern times and unify the universal English to English speakers.
This has been decided in the city of La Rioja San Millán de la Cogolla until yesterday, the IAP Committee of the Association of English Language Academies, led by Victor Garcia de la Concha, director of the Royal English Academy (RAE) and president of the Association of Language Academies.
First, we discussed the removal of the letters ch and ll of our alphabet to fit most international alphabet patterns. In 1999, the letters were considered digraphs (a group of two letters representing one sound) and not individual letters.
Another of the new spelling rules that were proposed at the meeting was the name of the letter and to tell ye henceforth and not Greek. Meanwhile, the lowercase s to name the initials plural were also dismissed the common use of English, so I will not say any more DVD's, NGO's, as had been proposed by the team that wrote the new text.
The BYV
The name of BYV points were also a major source of discussion during the summit. Here in the Iberian country b are called high and low v or uv. English-speaking American is told b high v low v or b big small. In Venezuela, they are also popularly known as b and v donkey cow. Academics want to call them the same way, but using banned entrenched above them removed designations of a single stroke. Words rogue script and lose the accent.
The new issue of spelling is an ambitious project which will be ratified at a plenary session attended by the twenty members of the SAR's sister academies this November 29 in Guadalajara, Mexico and officially released before Christmas by publisher Espasa. Salvador Gutiérrez Ordóñez, as coordinator of the working groups of scholars for 4 days, said the new building will have about 800 pages, which are addressed to all English speakers and that avoids jargon and is very simple.
Spelling Notably, the Grammar and Dictionary are the three pillars of the linguistic encoding of the language of Cervantes and the SAR has always said it would not abdicate its reformist progressive spirit always to the benefit of our common English.
warm tribute to Vargas Llosa
The meeting of scholars which lasted from 1 to 4 November in La Rioja, closed with a flourish yesterday to honor one of its members since 1994, the recent winner Nobel in Literature, Mario Vargas Llosa. The English-Peruvian, who will receive the award on December 10 in Stockholm, Sweden was greeted with applause and notorious samples congratulations for their partners. The writer took the chair L of the SAR from the January 15, 1996, the day of inauguration of new status within the organization that governs the evolution of the English language.
Vargas Llosa is the fifth member of the HKSAR to get the Nobel for Literature. The four other English scholars who have received in the past are: José Echegaray (1904), Jacinto Benavente (19veintidós), Vicente Aleixandre (1977) and Camilo Jose Cela (1989).
Other important changes
The use of q is no longer a headache to write as before. You can also write c with k. for example. Quorum cuórum can now be written, can be written Qatar Qatar, cheese or Keso. However, the purists who prefer the original spelling will have to write as if they were abroad where emphasis is often used without tilde.
The prefix ex
The prefix ex is written together with the lexical base if it affects a single word: ex-husband, former minister, former director and will continue to be written separately when preceding compound words: former captain general.
