In many cases older orthography and spelling is preserved from early modern Dutch.

f -> v (kalf -> kalv), onlf at the end of words

In other cases double vowels (long vowels) are reduced and replaced with by a vowel with a diacritic.

oo -> ö (Voorlandt -> Vörlandt)

uu -> ue

ee -> î

oe -> ü

Yet in other cases constants are doubled.

m -> mm (Komen -> Komme)

l -> ll
