Kurdish Language Day
Kurdish Language day (Sorani Kurdish: ڕۆژی زمانی کوردی, romanized: Řojî Zimanî Kurdî, Kurmanji Kurdish: Roja Zimanê Kurdî) May 15 is the Kurdish Language Day.[1] On this day in 1932 the first issue of Hawar was published by Celadet Alî Bedirxan in Damascus, Syria.[2] Hawar Literature Magazine played a crucial role in the development of the Kurdish language and culture.[3] Around 2006-2007[4] the Kurdistan National Congress designated May 15 as the official Kurdish language day marking the publication of the first issue of the Hawar Literature Magazine in 1932.[5]
