The Borama alphabet (Borama: ) or more generally known as the Gadabuursi script,[1] is a writing script for the Somali language. It was devised around 1933 by Sheikh Abdurahman Sh. Nur of the Gadabuursi clan.[1]

History

Though not as widely known as Osmanya, the other major orthography for transcribing Somali, Borama has produced a notable body of literature mainly consisting of qasidas.[2]

A quite accurate phonetic writing system,[1] the Borama script was principally used by Nuur and his circle of associates in his native city of Borama.[3][1]
