It would be more learned and, at the same time, more all-embracing. On the agenda were the following: lexical enrichment of the vernacular; a bridging of the dialects and the attainment of a form of linguistic unity by adopting a uniform, unified 'rational' orthography; the creation of scholarly, standardized dictionaries and grammars; and use of language as an arm in the struggle for cultural and, if possible, political autonomy.”
