<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3156437, member: 19463&quot;]When making tests, it is always a question of whether spelling &#039;errors&#039; make a wrong answer.&nbsp; When the subject answer is a word from a language using a non-English &#039;alphabet&#039; like Chinese, Sasanian, Greek or even Old English, you are faced with transliteration issues.&nbsp; I suppose if you are teaching a class and provided a text which used the spelling you require, you can insist your students learn your spellings but when you are posting an online quiz to be taken by people who know Khusro, Khosrow, Xusro and Anushiruwan are all the same guy, you need to have a more sophisticated answer key.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
