Two Scripts, One Language
The Rohingya language can be written in both the Hanifi Rohingya script and the Latin alphabet. The Hanifi script was created by Mohammad Hanif in the 1980s to provide a unique writing system for the Rohingya language.
Our language portal supports dual-script rendering, so you can learn to read and write in both systems side by side.
