The diverse range of interests in the study of EModE orthography is not surprising, if one considers the outstanding differences in terms of research into the topic, and the number of linguists with divergent fundamental assumptions and methodologies who share an interest in the possibilities, tendencies and reasons for change in the EModE language.
