Modern English spellings, please? If these are the words I think they are, they are loan words that became part of English long ago. Retaining the spellings they had in the languages they were borrowed from provides no value, and seems like an affectation. Or should we start spelling "Hotel" with accent circonflexe, and revive the English letters thorn and eth while we're at it?
