"Woordenlijst voor de spelling der Nederlandsche taal" by M. de Vries and L. A. te Winkel is a linguistic reference work written in the late 19th century. This publication serves as a comprehensive guide to the spelling of the Dutch language, addressing issues such as grammatical gender and the conjugation of verbs. Its primary focus is to clarify and standardize Dutch orthography, which had been a subject of contention and confusion among scholars and the general public. The opening of this work introduces the motivations behind the creation of a standardized spelling system for Dutch, highlighting the historical challenges posed by previous spelling conventions. It discusses the widespread dissatisfaction with the 1804 orthography, which lacked clarity and often led to uncertainty in both writing and education. The authors elucidate their approach to establishing a more coherent set of spelling rules, acknowledging the critical need for order and consistency in the language to facilitate effective teaching and communication. This preface sets the stage for the detailed explanations and rules that will follow in the subsequent sections of the reference work. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
Reading ease score: 60.3 (8th & 9th grade). Neither easy nor difficult to read.
