About the language

Rohingya at a glance

Rohingya is the language of the stateless Rohingya people, most of whom now live in refugee camps in Bangladesh or have been resettled abroad. We prioritise this language because the population is one of the most underserved by traditional interpretation networks.

Rohingya has no single dominant written standard. The Hanifi Rohingya script (written right to left), Arabic script, and Latin-based Rohingyalish all circulate โ€” so we confirm what the audience actually reads before translating, and often recommend audio as the more reliable channel.

Rohingya has approximately 1.8 million speakers, including 750,000+ in refugee camps. We cover the varieties listed here and can match a linguist to a specific region or community on request.
