No one even recognizes the old spelling. Even the dictionaries confirm the new spelling, with no mention of the old. — Darren MacLennan
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." — Darren MacLennan
