I think spelling is an important factor to consider.
For example from a battle chronicle:
If powder was written as "pulver, bulver, pulfer, bulver". Also swords as swords "schwerter, swerter" the "ch" was simply omitted.
"pernere" I had to read more than the whole sentence until I realized that it is a person from the city of Bern.
Sometimes you can understand it well, we write ski, but speak schi.
And this from a chronicler, the same book, the same person.
As mentioned by Rene, the foreign text should be considered.
