    Moving in with the in-laws after getting married...

    I know in some cultures it's seen as caadi, for the lady to move in with her in-laws to either live permanently or for a few months until the couple are economically stable. My question is would you be willing to move in with your in-laws?

    Define Success

    For me what I would consider success in this world as being an educated professional and retiring in Somalia or somewhere else after raising a family with morally upright kids and providing them a nice home and opportunity to make something of themselves in the West.

    Should Afro-Asiatic be disbanded?

    I find the languages so disparate that they no longer bear any relationship with one another. Compare Somali and Hebrew, for instance. They share no grammatical or etymological link whatsoever. Indonesian and Tagalog or Spanish and Hindi have more connection. Even if AA is a legitimate grouping...

    Will I get punished?

    I don’t have xiriir with half of my immediate family but it’s been like this since I was a little child. Do I have to seek out to my uncles and aunties when they’re older and should have that responsibility. I don’t want to reach out to people that don’t even reach out to me you get me?

    Cushitic name change

    The name Cushitic is offensive as it is a racial slur in af-yahuudi. I propose the language group changes it's name to Erythrean or Puntic.
