I found about a new Kurdo-Latin alphabet called Yekgirtú some time ago in Wikipedia. My question is about digraphs "gh/xh, jh, sh" used in this alphabet. Isn't there any word in Kurdish in which, for example, "s" and "h" stand apart and are pronounced individually? The reason we don't use the digraphs "gh, jh/zh, sh" in our various proposed Latin alphabets for Persian is that Persian has words in which, for example, adjacent "s" and "h" don't form a digraph e.g. eshal that one can mispronounce it as "e.shal" whereas it is pronounced "es.hâl".
Now, I'm thinking if there are such words in Kurdish and if so, why they haven't used single characters like "ğ, ĵ, ş". Is the problem minor and they are economizing in the utilization of non-basic Latin characters or it has another reason? Kurmanji alphabet doesn't use any digraph and therefore, doesn't expose such a problem.
- Thanks in advance
