Orthography = 'correct writing', includes spelling, punctuation, capitalisation.
- Orthography has changed across time, look for spellings which appear 'non-standard', new spelling forms, and idiosyncratic ideas.
- English is not phonetically spelt, causing problems for many.
- Standardisation of spelling attempted to 'fix' spelling and pronunciation with dictionaries reinforcing the 'standard'.
- Debate of 'new' areas adding/changing spelling/punctuation through things such as borrowings and technology.
