Have I not shown clearly that there is not a normal
damma used by Arabs and in the Philippines and a
RIGHT ARROWHEAD used by West Africans for the same
purpose, but that damma has a continum if shapes
from a small-waw-shape to a angular shape.
When you add to that the clear statement by Kew
and others that the West African language
communities using the RIGHT ARROWHEAD as a glyph
variant of damma, this nonsense should be stopped
whatever stage it has reached, should it not?
