Let’s Liberate Qubee from Bulk of Vowels

Our qubee needs reform and modification! The major bulk of repetitions in Afaan Oromo orthography is caused by using double vowels in writting the tonal long syllables. I would suggest to add 5 vowels for elongation, instead of using double vowels. For instance; ã instead of aa; é instead of ee; ɨ instead of ii; ø instead of oo and ü instead of uu! The only thing we need to make it practical is to creat keyboard and/or software for the possible writting of the 5 letters!

No it is not only libration from vowels but also from consonant.
It is borring to see names with repeated consonants like :
Gallas are spoiling the name kebede by writing as kabbaddaa! :lol: :lol:
Abebe as Abbabbaa :lol:
Tolosa as tolossaa
Shiit!
:lol:
