E.g. Katharevousa (itself a misspelling of Cathareýusa) forgoes loanwords and dialect.

I ween it okay if reflexes shift in spelling and sound if they don't conflict with extant stems, so that no inflections are lost or forgotten. E.g. English -an, -en, a-ing, and -ing all merged to -ing, and now everyone without education in lingvistics puts -ing on a verb, treats it as a verb when it's a noun, and uses that in translations of any Latinate verb or verbal noun without respect for aspect or case; -io (-th), -ura (-work), -ens (a-ing, formerly -end[e]), -entia (a-ings?, -ness?) all are parsede as -ing.

Commonwealth is the culture I meant, in contrast to a dictatorship.
