What actually matters in this language
- Somali only adopted an official Latin orthography in 1972, so older and oral-sourced material spells names inconsistently. Proper nouns are kept alongside the source form.
- Requests often involve refugee, residency and family-record documents, so notarization and registered delivery can be handled in the same pass.
