- A character realizes that the spelling of a particular word has changed permanently. He knows that he's spelling it correctly, but everybody else spells it the new way. No one even recognizes the old spelling. Even the dictionaries confirm the new spelling, with no mention of the old.

- A word simply disappears from existence. For example, "smooth" is no longer in any dictionaries, nor do people ever use the word; they simply describe something as "not rough."
