Ruth,
Would there be a benefit, in your way of thinking, if all of us eliminated accents in our writings? If nothing else, it will return us to the Hellenistic language accent system, the system used by the writers of the NT. The ancients had to distinguish between an EIS and a hEIS, an O from a hO, right? It seems intuitively right to me to write the same way the biblical writers did. It will force us to think more so like a Koine Greek speaker/writer. What are your thoughts?
