Inaccurate

edit

The total number of speakers of Jibbali should be updated, because that estimate was from 20 years ago. Also the Qara tribes are Arab tribes, and can be traced down 2000 years ago, they originated in Yemen as did most inhabitants of the Arabian Peninsula did.--Salalah4life (talk) 10:23, 24 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Unless there is a reliable source that includes a more recent figure on number of Jibbali speakers, we can only use the figure that we have. Personal estimates are not appropriate. (Taivo (talk) 12:43, 24 November 2009 (UTC))Reply


There was a couple things that were unrelated to the language. These unrelated parts shifted the focus from the main concept of the article. I added a couple of commas, and I also deleted the part that needed citation, "sense of separateness". It was irrelevant and hard to decipher the meaning behind it. -Yasmeen Elshakh — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yasmeen el (talkcontribs) 20:59, 7 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

MERGE to here

edit

This article is about language. Language articles are, by Wikipedia practice, called "X language". The final article should be named "Shehri language". (Taivo (talk) 07:01, 31 May 2008 (UTC))Reply

Yes, looks as if a merger is required. G Purevdorj (talk) 13:42, 1 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Discrimination

edit

I read that many Shehri speakers feel that they are discriminated against by the Omani government for speaking their language. Can information about this be added to the article? 173.88.246.138 (talk) 08:56, 26 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
