Editing Ho language (section)

==Writing system==
Ho has been written in various scripts, starting from the first written record of 1824<ref name=":1">Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal. : Asiatic Society of Bengal : Free download, borrow, and streaming : Internet Archive. (1844). Internet Archive. https://archive.org/details/journalofasiatic1314asia/page/n47</ref> to the present day, mostly using the [[Latin alphabet]], [[Devanagari]], [[Odia alphabet|Odia]] and more recently using the [[Warang Chiti]] script. Most writing done in Jharkhand tends to use the Devanagari script, while in Odisha it is the Odia script. While community intellectuals have been promoting the usage of Warang Chiti, it is yet to be widely used among Ho people due to it not being a part of school education. In 1985, a committee consisting of intellectuals including [[Ram Dayal Munda]] and [[Bhagey Gobardhan]] deliberated on common script for Ho, and decided in favor of Warang Chiti, eliminating competition from scripts put forth by other inventors such as Sangram Sindhu's Owar Anka Gār Lipi, disseminated by an institution called Sindhu Jumur, [[Rohidas Singh Nag]]'s [[Mundari Bani|Mundari Bani Hisir Champa]], Raghunath Purty's Ho Ol Lipi, Purushottam Godsora's Srishti Lipi among others.<ref>Gagrai, S.
