What makes Lulogooli unique?

History of Lulogooli

At MaMa Heritage Foundation, we value Lulogooli as the "foundation" of Logooli community. The Logooli communtiy as we know it today evolved around a common  nature of sounds and beliefs that became the language

Remarked as a "more beautiful language"

At the onset of Lulogooli literacy, Missionaries argued out that all the Luhya dialects were much alike, with Mr. Rees, Quaker Literacy Missionary based at Kaimosi Mission going on record for advocating for spread of Lulogooli as a more beautiful dialect in his view. [Rev. W. Chadwick 1914]

New Lulogooli structure Orthography as able to accommodate Luhya and other languages

Feared that dialects and continued borrowing of new words will erode Lulogooli,  Lung'afa Igunza's model of word structure orthography discovers the focal source of Lulogooli and leads to a proto-language that accomodates Luhya as well as Kussien group [Suba, Kisii, Zanati and more]

Development of a standard Lulogooli Orthography is our GREATEST achievement for Lulogooli language.
