How if the Euroburocrats want Europe to become something like the USA they allow the proliferation of many official languages? Even Maltese is an official tongue , which provokes astronomic amounts of money to be wasted in translating documents . Sure there are things that are more important than translationg from or to Maltese in Europe. If you think about it, the English language is the glue of the American nation. If there were many official languages in USA the sense of unity would be diluted. For this very same reason Europe will never be anything remotely similar to USA but a conglomerate of nations that push for their individual interests and don't care the rest. For example when Spain's posession in Northern Africa was invaded by Morocco in 2003 she didn't receive any support from France or other Euro countries, on the contrary and paradoxically it was USa which helped Spain (Spain in return supported the war of Irak and sent some troops ). Europe , in my opinion, is still a divided continent and rivalry is too strong. Do you think that a single official language would help to aliviate this?. I think absolutely yeas , furthermore I vote for German as the official language of the European nation because it's the most spoken one.
Should German become the sole official language of the EU?
CREO QUE SERIA MEJOR QUE LA LENGUA OFICIAL DE LA UNION EUROPEA FUERA EL ESPAÑOL PORQUE ASI LOS FRANCECITOS DE MIERDA MORIRIAN DE ENVIDIA, QUE NOS AHORRARIA EL TRABAJO DE MATARLOS EN LA GUERRA QUE SE ATISBA EN EL HORIZONTE.

I wonder how this will go over in France, Italy, or Spain?

Hitler can be considered to be the founder of a pre-European Union. It would be only honest to allow German its righfull place.
German “itself” certainly has nothing to do with Nazi or Hitler, apart from English, German even has more prestige than other European languages.

Because of so many language the need for a single franca one will be more necesary so English will be the only EU oficial language (De facto). A good play.
Also EU wants more little countries so EU will get more power.

Since many German speakers can understand and speak English, English is the most spoken language in the EU. English is the most suitable language because it is a systesis of Germanic and Latin elements, like the EU itself.

Add to this the US and the EU and the US combined have a lot of brainpower. Personally I'm not a fan of Anglo-Saxonia.
Walloon must become the language of the EU. An syntesis of Germanic and Latin elements.

Yes , English could perfectly be the language of Europe but English is already the official tongue in USA. Europe as I envision it, must be an alternative superpower to USA that has something different to offer to the world, linguistically too. So a different official language for Europe than English should be used.
German should indeed become the sole official language of the EU, but it should be written in Glagolitic alphabet and pronounced like Italian.
