Seit der Reform hat sich die deutsche Rechtschreibung in einigen Punkten geändert.
Since the reform, German spelling has changed in some respects.
The word is made up of 'recht' and 'Schreibung'. Here, 'recht' means 'right' or 'correct'. So literally, it is about the 'correct writing'.

In connection with 'Rechtschreibung' (spelling), the verbs 'achten auf' (to pay attention to), 'prüfen' (to check), 'verbessern' (to improve), and 'beherrschen' (to master) are often used.
Bitte achte beim Schreiben auf die Rechtschreibung.

'Rechtschreibung' (spelling) is often specified more closely with adjectives such as 'deutsch' (German), 'neu' (new), 'alt' (old), 'korrekt' (correct), or 'falsch' (incorrect).

spelling / writing style
Both words relate to writing correctly. “Die Rechtschreibung” refers mainly to the complete set of rules used to write words and sentences. “Die Schreibweise,” on the other hand, refers to the specific form of a word or sequence of words. Use “Rechtschreibung” when asking about rules and “Schreibweise” when asking about a particular form.
