wadaad, osmanya or even Ge'ez would've been much better than Latin

 

[WaranleSpirit]

the written language needs reform, get rid of the double vowels and do something about the C

Trust me I'm as Somali as you could get.
As much beef i got with the other unfortunate ethnicities in the horn. I prefer their cultures to the west. Somalia's education system should teach other cushitic languages in the language curriculum. Arabic first, then perhaps you could choose between Oromo, afar or smth else. Like in England you can choose between French and spanish.

I'm a Somali nationalist first and a proud Cushite/horner second.

All of western Europe languages are based of latin each with their own unique differences. I don’t understand why Somalis shouldn’t adopt and mold the ge’ez language to fit their own needs.

latin already does the same job, also makes learning english more easy. ge'ez is probably shit if we're being practical

All cultural/civilsational blocks have their languages based on their own regional script. Would be beneficial for the whole horn to adopt a single script.

Exactly ge’ez has a long history behind at least it wouldn’t look like a larp script that would be invented in the current year.

Same reason poles don’t use Cyrillic or Koreans don’t use Katakana. Because f*ck those bow legged hairy bastards

also you can’t use geez for Cushitic languages. even qotis tried but failed lol.

We aren’t a block with habeshis.

We won’t be part of the same continent inshallah in 200 million years but until that blessed day we have to live next to them.

Poland is catholic and feels close to Central western Europe so it adopts the Latin script used there.
Whereas the other Slavs are orthodox and invented Cyrillic script based on Greek since orthodoxy was heavily Greek influenced.

Koreans and Japanese and other adiadn surrounding the red giant all used chinese characters. But Japan adapted chinese characters for their own language creating Japanese writing and Koreans invented a whole new script in 1440s because the Korean king thought chinese was too hard and invented a simple easy script.

Most east asians used Chinese language for high levels things since though until a few centuries ago.

Not that i support that or anything but I don’t think that’s true tho. Plus the Somali language is very Semitic.

It’s an Abugida. Oromos used to use it
But it is very clumsy in writing in Oromo. You literally have holes where you can't actually even properly write certain words you just have to assume and infer from experience and context what is meant.

However - Somalis, Oromos, and other Africans used to use Arabic script.

Lot of us childhoods literally look like this! Quran reading and Writing Arabic Script.
