Central Kurdish (; ') also called Sorani (; ') is a Kurdish dialect spoken in Iraq, mainly in Iraqi Kurdistan, as well as the Kurdistan Province of western Iran. Sorani Kurdish is one of the two official languages of Iraq, along with Arabic, and is in political documents simply referred to as "Kurdish".〔Allison, Christine. The Yezidi oral tradition in Iraqi Kurdistan. 2001. "However, it was the southern dialect of Kurdish, Sorani, the majority language of the Iraqi Kurds, which received sanction as an official language of Iraq."〕〔Kurdish language issue and a divisive approach. http://www.kurdishacademy.org/?q=node/194〕 The term Sorani (; '), after the name of the former principality of Soran, is used especially to refer to a written, standardized form of Central Kurdish written in an adapted form of the Kurdo-Arabic alphabet, developed in the 1920s by Sa'íd Sidqi Kaban and Taufiq Wahby.〔 Joyce Blau, ''Methode de Kurde: Sorani'', Editions L'Harmattan (2000), ( p. 20 )〕 According to David Neil MacKenzie, the present Kurdish written standard is based on the Sulaymaniyah dialect, influenced phonologically by the Pîjdar and Mukriyanî dialects. ==History== In Sulaymaniyah, the Ottoman Empire had created a secondary school (Rushdiye), the graduates from which could go to Istanbul to continue to study there. This allowed Sorani, which was spoken in Silêmanî, to progressively replace Hewrami (Gorani) as the literary vehicle. Since the fall of the Ba'athist regime in Iraq, there have been more opportunities to publish works in the Kurdish language in Iraq than in any other country in recent times. As a result, Sorani Kurdish has become the dominant written form of Kurdish. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Central Kurdish」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
