Af Reer Waqooyi should be the standard Somali

Death Awaits You
Wuqooyi pronunciation, which identical to Galbeed pronunciation is the standard. Southern mispronunciations are either slang or just Mudugian mispronunciation
And majority of somalis speak standard Somali but most somalis on social media speak mudug or xamarawi due to having ties to muqdisho. I always feel out of place whenever I watch one of their videos.
 
Waqooyi dialect is closer to standard Somali than other dialects. Written Somali is basically waqooyi dialect without the dh.

In Mudug dialect they add -hayaa after the verb for example: tagahayaa, cunahayaa, imanahayaa etc. In some instances they replace rt with dh when it's in the middle of a word for example: ma jirto -> ma jidho.

Read the official translation of Qur'an. Standard writting is Northern.

You find in that translation words like caDHo and yiDHi not caRo or yiRi that

We had xamarawi neighbors growing up and I considered their dialect a separate language. Make of that what you will
 
It's a tough task for everyone sxb.They need to do something about the double vowels, shit looks like keyboard smashing


They never bothered to reform it. Writing down a sentence can take up a whole fucking page. What a shitty way of writing.

@Removed @Django @GeeljirePoet

RSL, Jabuuti, and Ogaadeeniya should reform the vowel system. How can you tell XABBAD for XABBAD for one then you have the songle consonant in XABAD for chest.
