Salma , the somali in its written form is one of the very few languages on Earth which can reveal one's regional origin . Indeed it all started in the early 1970's when the president at that time { I can't quite remember his name

} decided that using the latin alphabet somali should be tought to all somalis in school instead of any of the previous occupiers'. The problem is ,most of the time people write in somali like they speak it thus rejecting or simply ignoring the fact that the purest form of somali is the one spoken by Northerners
Assumimg that you are starting from scratch , I would advise you sister to team up with another girl we have here that goes by Suhayla who will hopefully take you up up to her current stage wich is contructing half broken sentences , good enough though to get her point across

I'm sure gama'diid will take it from there.
