YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 6, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. "Betrayal of
the way of writing granted by the God is unworthy for our nation, and
we discredit ourselves, not re-establishing it. Our nation, cut off
real roots, is condemned to drying," Tom Samuelian, a lecturer of the
American University of Armenia stated at the September 5 gathering
of members of the Union Mesropian Orthography Supporters. In the
Diasporan Armenian intellectual's words, 15 years ago, the Armenian
people was not yet ready to refuse the language policy obliged
to him, but today it will become the best step on the threshold
of the 15th anniversary of the Armenian Independence. In words of
Khoren Palian, a senior lecturer of the Yerevan State University,
famous Armenian intellectuals, including linguist Hrachia Acharian,
poet Paruyr Sevak, etc., were sure in the necessity of passing to
the classic orthography. In his words, if the Armenian Genocide did
not take place, this issue would not exist, either, and the nation
would today be more healthy and united.
