Re: Fulah spell checker

Hi Urmas,
I am not sure if you realize how insulting your remarks can be to all
the 45 to 60 million native speakers of Fulah around 20 countries not
counting those in the diaspora!
What do you mean "Fulah is not even a language"? Either it is utter
ignorance, in which case you should do a little research before , or
deliberate contempt towards people you know little about!
Anyway let me tell you that Fulah is a macrolanguage with a single
alphabet since 1966 and I don't see what dialects have to do with
spelling as those dialects are only regiaonal spoken variations of
Fulah: the writing is the same all over the world. So your remarks are
irrelevant and insulting and you should apologize for being so
disrespectful.

Regards
Ibrahima
