Sora Script
Script Description
The Sora Sompeng script is used for writing the Sora language spoken by about 310,000 people in India, predominantly in the eastern state of Orissa. Sora is in the Munda language family. It is also sometimes called Sora or Savara, but is not to be confused with the Savara language in the Dravidian family. According to the Ethnologue, Sora Munda is given the language code srb, and Savara Dravidian is given the language code savara.
There are three scripts which have been created specifically for writing Munda languages; Sora Sompeng for the Sora language, Ol' Chiki for the Santali language, and Varang Kshiti for the Ho language. However, these three scripts are not visually similar and are not derived from a common source, all having been created by influential community leaders to replace non-native scripts.
The Sora language has also been written in an IPA-based script developed by Christian missionaries, and in the Telugu and Oriya scripts. In the 1930 s there was conflict within the community as to which of these was best-suited to the language. To resolve the conflict,
Mangei Gomango, the son-in-law of an influential Sora leader, introduced the Sora Sompeng script in 1936. Sora tradition states that the script itself is a divine incarnation of the deity called Akshara Brahma, but other scholars suggest that the shapes of the letters are loosely based on Latin/IPA letters, and the additional loops are based on Telugu writing.
There are twenty-four letters in the Sora Sompeng syllabary, named for the twenty-four deities in the Sora pantheon. The eighteen consonant letters carry an inherent vowel may or may not be written post-consonantally, therefore, the inherent vowel could be said to merge and . Unlike many of the South Asian syllabaries, there are no vowel diacritics. Vowels other than are written both initially and post-consonantally using six independent vowel letters. When written post-consonantally, the implication is that they override the inherent vowel. The script does not appear to be ideally suited for the Sora language. Two letters, c and v, are never used. Some vowel letters are used for representing more than one sound, for example the letter o can represent either [o] and [ɔ]. Also unusual among South Asian syllabaries is the absence of both conjunct forms and a vowel-killer stroke; consonant clusters are written using linear combinations of consonant letters in their full CV form. It may be that the inclusion or deletion of vowels between consonants is governed by rules relating to stress/tone/intonation prosodic rules), or to the sound rules applied at a morpheme break morphophonemic rules), so is predictable to people familiar with the language and it doesn't need to be written. If this is not the case, then there is no way to deduce whether a sequence of consonant letters represents a phonetic CVCV sequence or a phonetic CC consonant unless the reader knows the pronunciation of the word intended.
Retro flex consonants present a particular problem for the Sora Sompeng script. Sora follows the Munda pattern of using dental [t] and retro flex , but not retro flex or dental which fill out the Brahmic pattern. Retro flex loan sounds including , and are indicated by writing the one Sora Sompeng diacritic, mae, to the left of the closest equivalent letter. Dental is not differentiated from retroflex in writing. Retro flex is also native to the Sora language, and is written using the letters .
Aspirate stops are also problematic for Sora Sompeng writing. Aspiration is not distinctive in native Sora, so is omitted in writing Sora words, but needs to be represented in writing a number of loan words from neighbouring languages in which it is distinctive. The letter h cannot be used to indicate aspiration; it is used for representing a glottal stop. Nouns in Sora must have two syllables, and a glottal stop is often inserted halfway through the vowel in a mono-syllabic noun to split it into two syllables. Therefore, where aspiration needs to be written, it is written with the closest non-aspirate letter followed by the letter j.
It is thought that vowel length is generally not written. The exception to this is in cases where a long [a:] at the start of a word conveys some kind of grammatical information about the word, or in cases where it changes the stress pattern of the word. In these cases the letter a is written twice.
Vowel nasalization is distinctive in spoken Sora, but it is not clear whether this is represented in the writing.
Sora Sompeng has no script-specific punctuation. The Latin full stop, comma, semicolon, exclamation mark, mathematical symbols, and parentheses are used.
