Not sure.interesting! how did the maymaymay language come to be?
The rest of Somalis speak the same language but with different dialects that are all mutually intelligible. wassup with you guys?
that's actually quite interesting! I had no idea af may had less borrowed words.Not sure.
Some argue that Maay is the original Somali. Reason being Maay has little influence from outside langauges and is a pure cushitic language. While Maxaa tiri has many loan words from Arabic, Hindi, Italian and English.
Also Af Maay speakers are sedentary while Maxaa speakers and mainly nomads. So it's more likely that the Maxaa language was developed from Af Maay.
Af Maay is also richer then Af Maxaa in terms of vocabulary. You will find synonyms of many words in Af Maay while Af Maxaa might have a word or two.
So arguably Maxaa came from Af Maay then changed due to influences from Arabic and other language.
We have our own Abwaans in AF Maay. We have our own version of gabays and everything.that's actually quite interesting! I had no idea af may had less borrowed words.
We need a state sponsored research done on this.
however I have a counter argument which is af maxaa tidhi speakers have a lot of poets who were experts in af maxa tidhi, but I don't know of any well known poets that speak in afmay.
