Honestly, it's nice but let's stick with the current latin script. Why fix it when it's not broken.

Using Far Wadaad will boost the literacy rate as even Geeljires know how to read the Arabic script

We can introduce it step by step. However, this will be a costly endeavor.

That's why we should start now to phase it out. Also it isn't as costly as the Somali alphabet is not known by a majority of the Population and all our costs will be reduced by the fact the Arabic alphabet keyboard can be easily adapted to other languages like in Urdu and Persian.


Also Saxib why are you less active on Somaliwave nowadays

We just need to modernise our latin script like turkish. We suffered the same flaws like turkish did with representing vowel harmony. But also diphthongs.
