We believe that K is a totally useless letter and serves no purpose in our language. IT can always be replaced by either C or Q when neccessary. AS for K in names, names with K\'s could remain the same, but any new babies could not be named with K\'s in their names. this way all the K\'s will eventually die out in names, leaving the letter K as an extinct letter. IN no instance is the letter K required and the language would get along better without it. Please sign and help us to eliminate K from our alphabet.

People keep asking me how we manage without K and I tell them that C does the job just fine. Send a message to your local school board today and demand they stop teaching this redundant letter.

Moving past this milestone proves people are ready to clean up our alphabet. Post this link on your Facebook wall right now to keep the momentum building. Text three friends and tell them why the letter K has to go.

Filipino is hard because of K! They should have gotten only rid of Q and replaced it with C! K was never a necessary letter in Filipino

What about words like knife or know? They sound like n anyway so just get rid of the k and spell it nife and now. way easier for kids to learn to spell.
