[edit] Name of the alphabet
Is it called the Africa alphabet or the African alphabet? --LMS
The source I'm giving calls it 'Africa alphabet'. I don't know yet if it has been called 'African alphabet' as well. Hannes Hirzel
There really is an institution called International Africa Institute
see http://www.aim25.ac.uk/search/thesaurus/corps/list8.htm
A chapter by Sow & Abdulaziz in a larger work (referenced in the article) uses 2 other names which I have added to the intro para: International African Alphabet and IAI alphabet. The chapter has a short discussion on IAI. --A12n 22:56, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Uppercase forms in original Africa Alphabet
Are all the uppercase forms given in the article actually what were proposed in 1928/30? Based on examples of usage in the 1930 IIALC publication, there is a question of usage for the upper case of ɓ. --A12n 18:44, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
