adj

Etymology: From ortho- + -graph + -ic. Compare French orthographique, Latin orthographus, Ancient Greek ὀρθογράφος (orthográphos).

  1. Of a projection used in maps, architecture etc., in which the rays are parallel.
  2. Of, or relating to, orthography.

    This overlapping is reflective of hybrid languages, where certain features (phonetic, orthographic, semantic, syntactic) are also difficult to disentangle.
