Somali Scripts Premium
iPhone / Education
This app can help you get to know some of the indigenous Somali alphabets. Scroll through the letters and study their shapes and sounds. Practice tracing each one until you're familiar-- then quiz yourself on the letters! This is the premium version meaning it is ad-free.
The three scripts presented are Osmanya, Borama/Gadabuursi, and Kaddare. Each one is interesting and has its short history.
Unfortunately, most are not widely used since the Somali government's decision to adopt the Latin alphabet. Osmanya is the only indigenous Somali script included in unicode.
