The opening of the International Congress of the Spanish Language in Zacatecas, which was charged to Gabriel Garcia Marquez under the title �Bottle the sea for the God of words�, showed that not all academics of Spanish have consistent views on the current situation of Spanish, its spelling and grammar. The writer reflects a current of opinion about spelling and grammatical simplification, which began several centuries earlier (from Nebrija, straps, Bello and later with Juan Ramón Jimenez proposals) and which has a blunt response from other Spanish-speaking intellectuals on this occasion. In this article, we analyze the controversy, providing the most relevant points of view on the issue, to conclude that a phonemic spelling system such as ours is only sustained with the pillar of historically consistent spelling.
