=== Late Cornish orthography ===
Written sources from this period are often spelled following English spelling conventions since many of the writers of the time had not been exposed to Middle Cornish texts or the Cornish orthography within them. Around 1700, Edward Lhuyd visited Cornwall, introducing his own partly phonetic orthography that he used in his {{lang|la|Archaeologia Britannica}}, which was adopted by some local writers, leading to the use of some Lhuydian features such as the use of [[circumflex]]es to denote long vowels, ⟨k⟩ before front vowels, word-final ⟨i⟩, and the use of ⟨dh⟩ to represent the voiced dental fricative /ð/.{{sfn|Ball|Müller|2009|pp=496–497}}<ref name="Mills 1999" />
