Hyphenation has generally been standardized. However, when a word appears hyphenated and unhyphenated an equal number of times, both versions have been retained (churchyard/ church-yard; earrings/ear-rings; housewarming/house-warming; lifelong/life-long; midday/mid-day; stateroom/state-room; transcontinental/trans-continental; warships/war-ships).
Accented letters have generally been standardized, unless different versions of the word appear an equal number of times (cortege/cortège; resistance/résistance).
