Afàn Oromo Teachers and Oromo Policy Makers Lack Creativity, they Keep Qubé Amorphous!

It was nice attempt that Oromo scholars like Dr. Haile Fida and Oromo organizations such as the OLF created, used and promoted Qubé, which is more suitable than Geez-Fidel to write Afàn Oromo. Using double consonants and double vowels was very good to differentiale words according to their concrete meanings. At that time, there was no appropriate computer technology to replace the double letters with single letter plus certain sign. But, now at this modern era of computers, why do Afàn Oromo teachers and Oromo policy makers lack creativity and stick to the hitherto amorphous writing of Qubé with bulk of double letters? I think, it is possible to get rid of at least double vowels, if not be free from double consonants.

It is clear that all enemies of the Oromo mainly target the core identity of the nation – Afàn Oromo. The past Habesha regimes prevented it from being used officially and tried to eliminste it. The present rule of the Hybrids (marital, physical and/or mental Diqalas) led by Abiy Ahmed are also vehmently determined to keep Afaan Oromo at second level by maintaining the hitherto domination of Amarigna/Amaranet over Oromummå. It is now the main job of genuine Oromo nationalists rallying behind the OLF/OLA and OFC to promote Afån Oromo to its legitimate leading primary position replacing Amarigna. Then, it can be the primary working language of all federal institutions like parlament palace, cabine, court, military and security. The promotion need to be in triple way: 1. make it free from balk of vowels, 2. use it as primary federal language & 3. apply it to sing all musics of different cultures in Ethiopia as well as others in the world. I specially recomend to sing the Gonderigna beat of Yejjuu and Tigrigna rhythm of Ràyyà in Afàn Oromo.

Otherwise, our qubee needs reform and modification! The major bulk of repetitions in Afàn Oromo orthography is caused by using double vowels in writting the tonal long syllables. I would suggest to add 5 vowels for elongation, instead of using double vowels. For instance; à instead of aa; é instead of ee; ī instead of ii; ô instead of oo and ü instead of uu! The only thing we need to make it practical is to creat keyboard and/or software for the possible writting of the 5 letters! Enjoy the following qubee music to be creative and motivated:
