Synopsis

Excerpt from Notes on the Somali Language: With Examples of Phrases and Conversational Sentences

I have not attempted to introduce any but the Roman characters, though some sounds cannot really be represented by them. The cerebral (i, referred to by Frs. Evangeliste and Cyprien, is sometimes pronounced as d and sometimes like r, though never exactly like either. I have, however, used these letters so as to show in each word which of these two sounds tends to prevail.
