I juts have told you "creator : Emanoel Snăza"

I'm Emanoel Snăza

Comparing with other Kurdish alphabets, it has been practiced in nowhere [just in some Kurdish Jewish private communities or in some forums by me]
The currecnt Kurdish alphabet (the Latinone) is not perfect. I created that alphabet around two years ago and I think it's atleast more completed than old one. I just wanted to present it here and know the others ideas about it.

I like most of the changes, except Ă ă it doesnt look normal

I don't like it...

I want something stable - and well established...

Kurds can be very annoying some times... It's like EVERY Kurdish singer... Suddenly they jump up from everywhere and think they are Hesen Zîrek or Eyşe Şan...

This is the same matter... If everybody would do like you, kak Emanoel, then how are we ever going to unite?

Let's keep to what is the common practices Latin Kurdish alphabet - which is the one created by Celadet Bedirxan...

HOWEVER - you MAY add to the already existing one...

In my oppinion, even that is meaningless - since the thick L and rolling R for example, are merely found in some sub-dialects...

Not in all of Kurdistan... If you had ONE alphabet for each sound, you'd end up with a 50 letter alphabet...

I dont like it either, it's not as simple as the standard alphabet, most kurds already have problems with just the ^ on top of the vowels..

What I dont mind (like Diri wrote), is when we use new letters to adress frequently used sounds which our alphabet doesnt cover. Could it be that prince Bedirxan didnt want us to use the new arabic sounds anymore?

For instance Ĥ ĥ : Ĥeft, Muĥemmed

Sometimes i use the arabic Ain (3)... for instance ta3l, ça3v, 3ereb which is frequently used in my dialect.

very mass,
i like to go through and explaing but i found this interview with Husên Kartal in Tishk tv will answer all issues, watched from start to end. you will get all answers.
