Arguments and Discussions On Use of Perso-Arabic

In almost all countries which use Perso-Arabic script, there have been discussions between parties about replacing it, often raising the concept of romanization. For example:

  • Tajikistan has implemented a Cyrillic alphabet instead of Perso-Arabic
  • Turkish people have chosen a Latin-Based Turkish alphabet, in part because the eight vowels of Turkish were ambiguously represented by only three symbols
  • Azerbaijan and Uzbek implemented Cyrillic, but have since switched to Latin alphabets.
  • In Iran, methods of romanizations like Unipers have been invented.
  • Kurdish language has utilized a Kurdish Latin alphabet
