Nigeria has over 300 languages with three main languages been Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa.
There has been many business alliances formed between people speaking these languages
and also inter-marriages between Nigerians speaking different languages and with people from other nationality is becoming more common.
These and the increasing number of Nigerians living overseas have made it imperative to develop this software to preserve the culture.
It is anticipated that SORO will help to reduce communication barriers among Nigerians and enhance business and personal relationships.
The application also includes a lifestyle information library which is similar to an electronic document management system. This allows the storage and
retrieval of any electronic files into SORO. Images, pictures, video recordings and any other files can be stored.
When using the Information library all features of the Language system can be used. Most importantly information (record)
can be saved in up to four versions,for example four versions of a picture of "grandma" can be saved when creating a family category or history.
