[NidarNidar]

Good news

We can't be losing regional dialects, shit needs to be preserved.

PM Barre sacked the guy

Good riddance!

 

[Haragwaafi]

I support this and he only spoke the truth as it was mistake for the PM to sack him.

Dialects or other minor languages should be only be spoken outside the state institution as there's only one Dialect or language is spoken by the majority of the people being the official one in the land and that needs to preserved and respected.

How is this acceptable?

It is agreed upon that Maay and Maxaa tiri both make up the Somali language. How can this individual want to take Maay out of the dastuur and only keep it as af Maxaa tiri.

Education goes under the state. Have your own curriculum that fits your people once ready.

Now do you see why you need to protect your people's autonomy, with your life??

A lot of Somalis don't understand or respect the concept of autonomy, until a psycho government comes for them. We need a confederation, forget a federal country, to accommodate our inherent differences.

I agree with you on that. Autonomy is very important for Reer SWS if we want to preserve our language and culture.

 

[Bazed]

Isn't Af Maay simply a dialect change, it's still mutually intelligible. Don't see why there's a big issue. People will chose when and where to use it, let them be.

 

[killerxsmoke]

I think both maxatiri and maya need to be updated we need new words to be invnted to keep up in moderns world specialy for science and acdemia.

It's already happening

 

[Abaq]

I agree with this. Why should the Af Maay dialect get special treatment? Why not Af Tunni or Af Garre or Af Dabarre etc? There is one standard lingua franca and that is Af Maxaa Tiri and specifically the Af Maxaa tiri of the Hawd (the news is not in Af Xaayow after all)

 

[𐒁𐒚𐒒𐒂𐒘𐒂𐒗 𐒎𐒚𐒗𐒗𐒒]

Let's respect linguistic diversity and allow each FMS, to have their own special clauses and language status.

For Puntland, I want Af-Maxaa, Mudug dialect for written communication + Osmanya script.

 

[Jaale]

There should only be a single written language. A dialect doesn't constitute its own written language.

It should have just said, Af Soomaali.

 

[Aurelian]

Af maay isnt Somali and thus the status quo should remain. No Maay in public schools or parliament whilst they learn Maxaa Tiri and speak it in their own government offices.

Before these langaab languages die we should have them studied. They can tell us alot about Somalis development.

Not Somali, but should be studied to tell us about Somali development?

 

[Cartan Boos]

One language only sxb, if we allowed these dialect it will further divide the people so I agree

Not surprising at all Maxatiri Supremacists have always been plotting on downfall of Af Maay, not something new aswell been going on for decades

Somalis are diverse linguistically, all languages and dialects should be official in areas they're spoken, Af Maay should only be used in Maay areas , Af Maxatiri in Maxatiri areas etc Diversity should be promoted

 

[Banadiri Warrior]

Af Maay and should be removed and the language should be limited. Af-Somali needs to be standardized and expanded.

Don't bother saying af somali just say Maxatiri
