| | A new orthography. |
 | | Therefore an orthography that does not distinguish /pating/ and /pading/ would be no simpler for Americans, while it would be much less satisfactory for other speakers of English. | | | The traditional English orthography is an unnecessary and unacceptable obstacle for children learning to read, write, and speak English. | | | The traditional pronunciation - that which preserves the rimes, metre, alliteration, and puns of English literature - may be the most acceptable basis for an orthography. |

| | Or try to convince Germans to restore the pre-Lutheran orthography, and the Russians to restore their old orthography, explaining to them that after the spelling reform in 1918 (also initiated by the Bolshevik government) they lost the spirit of their epics. | | | Let those who advocate classical orthography tell Italians: you break ties with your glorious Roman past, and in the name of restoration, adopt the Latin orthography. | | | A considerable part of Diasporan Armenians, at least those whose active language is English or French, find it quite natural that there is no unequivocal interconnection between the way a word is written and pronounced. |

| | Qur'anic Orthography: The Written Representation Of The Recited Text Of The Qur'an |
| | Indeed, some argued that there was no reason that it should be written in an orthography that is not used for writing any other book of the time. | | | Desire to facilitate the reading and learning of the Qur'ān to each generation according to their contemporary orthography is an argument non-traditionalists have always repeated. | | | Do not pay attention to what some stupid people think that the companions of the Prophet were masters of the craft of writing and what we find in their writing different from systematic orthography is not actually as we imagine but there is an explanation and wisdom behind it. |

| | In the Omaha-Ponca texts I include on line, the LaFlesche Orthography is used, except that s and z are distinguished as s and z. | | | In the LaFlesche Orthography the c-cedilla represents the Omaha-Ponca /s/ and /z/ phonemes. | | | Two hallmarks of the LaFlesche system are the use of c-cedilla to write the s and z phonemes, and the use of a following superscript n to represent vowel nasality. |

| | However, studies have shown that dyslexia occurs more often among speakers of languages such as English whose orthography differs heavily from the phonology than speakers of languages such as Finnish or Italian where the letter-sound correspondence is more regular (see: PISA report[?]). | | | English had also borrowed large numbers of words from French, which for reasons of prestige and familiarity kept their French spellings. | | | The first is that the admirably consistent orthography of Old English was swept away by the Norman Conquest, and English itself was eclipsed by French for three centuries, eventually emerging with its spelling much influenced by French. |
