Usage notes

  • The rules of the Dutch official spelling regarding jood and Jood would prescribe jodenvervolging in relation to persecution of Jews as a religious group and Jodenvervolging for persecution as an ethnic or cultural group, although Jodenvervolging is the only spelling recognised in the official list. In practice this implied prescription is not widely followed, not even in recent edited publications.
