Jacaylbaro Posted September 29, 2011 The conversion of books into audio data presented itself as on of the most effective and highly beneficial methods to give Somali readers the opportunity to access Somali literature in a more enjoyable and accessible format. We believe this method will in particular assist members of the community with partial or reduced vision and any other group with special needs who are often overlooked or not catered for at all. Audio books will also engage the vast number of people who are not experts in reading Somali or are in the process of transiting from oral to written literature.

Alpha Blondy Posted September 29, 2011 illiterate? there is a rich oral history in the somali-speaking world. i suppose, books will only be one form of communicating information, stories and values. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carafaat Posted September 29, 2011 Our oral history is not really reliable. Only primitive societies have long relied on oral traditions. We need pass that stage. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NGONGE Posted September 30, 2011 ^^ It actually doesn't. The "waxa la yedhi" crew will lap this up and discard written materials. Audio books are only a good idea for islaamaha iyo odayada warka jecel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
