Prof. [[Liim Keahioong]], formerly of the National Cheng Kung University in [[Tailaam]], Taiwan, pioneered the Taiwanese Modern Spelling System (TMSS) in 1943, with the intent to avoid the diacritic markings of POJ and the cumbersomeness of inputting Chinese characters with the technology available.  TMSS served as the basis for Modern Literal Taiwanese (MLT), or Modern Taiwanese Language (MTL) system.

==Use of ø==
MTL uses the "[[Q]]" in place of "[[ø]]". It is also acceptable to substitute "oe" for "Qe". On this wiki, this is generally done in multisyllable words.
