Ma aadan baran karin haddii aad rabto. Idoorka boqolkiiba 57% baa qoraal iyo akhris yaqaan. Waxaa tahay gun taariikh iyo ilbaaxnimo laheyn.

Poetry comes from Ogaden you just seem jealous of the script, why not make your own? Jebateris also created the Somali latin script
 
Even though Osmaniya is the best Somali created script, we should use the Wadaad (Arabic) script since it’s benefits far outweighs any other writing system and unlike Osmaniya, the Wadaad (Arabic) script has actual history in the Somali peninsula and was not created under colonial occupation. I talked about it in another post.
Somalis should have adopted the Wadaad (Arabic) script since our scholars, wadaads and Pre-colonial elites have been using the Wadaad (Arabic) script to write the Somali language. The Wadaad (Arabic) script is actually historical and traditional to the Somali peninsula, unlike these other writing systems which were created in the colonial Era. Furthermore, with a standard Arabic script, it would enrich the Islamic heritage of Somalis and create a stronger cultural link with the Muslim world (especially the Arab world) since the Arabic script and language is a symbol of Islam’s rich heritage and civilization. The benefits of having the Wadaad (Arabic) script far outweighs the benefits of having Latin or any other colonial Era created script. We could just slightly modify it to make it more suitable to the Somali language, the same way Ottoman Turkish (who are unfortunately non-existent), Persian and Urdu speakers did with their scripts.

Why should Soomaalida use a foreign script to write in their language wallaho, for example the Koreans use to write their language using Chinese characters until sejong the great invented the Hangul alphabet over the time people stopped using as at first it was looked down upon. Wadaad is only good learning Arabic and studying the Quran not shouldn't be used to write the Somali language

Osmanya - writing in Af Soomaali
Wadaad - Only should be used to learn Arabic and quran nothing else

Osmanya users are like Somalia’s version of hoteps.

There is a reason why the PL-dominated SYL refused to consider it as a legitimate script.

Poetry is well known that the people you call iidoors are the one who excel in it among all Somali speakers which is why they makeup the majority of the poets and the Ogadeens you gave credit for actually use Isaaq accent when they recite their poetry including most of the Daarods.

There are in Somali four major dialect divisions* The dialects are: Isaq, Mudug, Dir, and Benadlr. The highest prestige is accorded Isaq, which is spoken in the former British Protectorate, now the Northern Region, principally around Hargeisa.

Just listen to Abwaan Dheeg gabay and show me a Jaberti poet that can speak that way.



The Somali Latin script was first developed by the linguistic reer Burco Muuse Xaji Galaal in 1950s and in 1956 he published his book called Hikmad Soomaali the first Somali book entirely to be written in Latin script.

In the 1960s he was part of Somali language committee that included the linguist Shire Jaamac from Dhusimareb and the Polish-British linguist B.W Andrzejewski including several other linguists that further modified the Somali Latin script that Gaalal introduced that became the official script of Af Soomaali in 1972.

I don't call isaaqs Idoors. never have, you can check my post history and you listed British sources who were particularly bias towards you. Also what the hell is an "isaaq" accent?
