Quote:My personal opinion (based on studying it) is that there may be a set of rules governing it, but there are a few places where it is extremely difficult to discern why a particular character was inserted in a particular place. I've wrestled with this for years.
Is it mostly rule-based with some room for exceptions? Or is it mostly rule-based with exceptions that encode meaning? If so, the proportion of meaningful text is small.
