simple:Orthography
The orthography of a language is the set of rules of how to write correctly in the language. The term is derived from Greek ορθο ortho- ("correct") and γραφος graphos ("that writes") and, in today's sense, includes spelling and punctuation; it is distinct from typography.
An example of an orthographic rule for English is
- A vowel that
- is not preceded immediately by another vowel, and
- is followed by an "E" at the end of the word, without any consonants between the vowel and the "E"
- may represent the "long" sound of the vowel.
- Kinds of writing:
- Calligraphy
- Penmanship
- Graphology
- Spelling
- Punctuation
