Rohingya language
Rohang is the ancient name of Arakan State, Burma (Myanmar). Rohingya or Rohangya(Rohang+ya) means the people of Rohang.
The first writing of Rohingya Language was more than 300 years ago and used Arabic scripts. However, due to lack of all sounds available with Arabic scripts, a new innovative system has been developed using 28 Latin Alphabets whereas 26 alphabets are from todays English alphabets. Above these, five accented vowels (known to Rohingya as gutá vowels) áéíóú are also used.
a | b | c | ç | d | e | f |
