Er, while someone, as Mr./Ms. J. Oracha suggests, is developing a "proper spellings and structure for Luganda words", why don't we get a two-for-one.
I mean, couldn't we get that same chap to do something about some of those Northern dialect so they go easier on the ear and the throat. If this wouldn't seriously perturb the economy of throw too many E.N.T. specialists it would greatly make life easier for those of us who do know/understand such dialects.
What do you guys think?
In the meantime, one might acquaint themselves with the standard orthography of Luganda at www.Buganda.com (click on language), and/or see how Luganda Scientific Terminologies Research is progressing at www.Luganda.com.

J Oracha bajakumumatiiza!.Why have you in all these donkey decades et centuries et millenia complained by English words like Pyschology which could easily haven been written as saikoloje?. Please try to understand the etymology of the language before complaining my beloved brother. Thanks. Kuci Wubedi kodin. Kipenji.

Someone need to help develop proper spellings and structure for Luganda words. I see that they seem to combine words in such a way that by the time you reach the end of the word, you have forgotten the beginning. Look at how long these words are, they could have been seperated into easily pronounceable units: antegeezezza, munnakibiina, bazimukwanga, Oluvannyuma, yamuyisizzaako. For some one who does not know Luganda, even just reading to get a feel of the language ends up as a frustrating exercise.
