- QUOTE: Adjustment Rules: Morphological features that are realized concatenatively (as opposed to templatically) are not always simply concatenated to a word base. Additional morphological, phonological and orthographic rules are applied to the word. An example of a morphological rule is the feminine morpheme, X+p (ta marbuta), which can only be word final. ...
... An example of an orthographic rule is the deletion of the Alif (...) of the definite article + Al+ in nouns when preceded by the preposition + l+ ‘to/for’ but not with any other prepositional proclitic.

- QUOTE: There are two possible definitions of what an orthographic rule is. One is that learning about any spelling sequence that cannot be decoded on the bases of a single letter-sounds associations is orthographic learning. Under this definition the sequence "ight", for example, is an orthographic sequence. But this definition seems to broad … The second definition of orthographic rules states that these are conditional rules: the child has to learn that a sound is usually represented in one way if one conditions holds but that it is (again, usually) spelled differently under another condition. http://books.google.com/books?id=b-uXEMWxZAQC&oi=fnd&pg=PA260
