Miskeen

It's also an arabic word

 

[Scipio Africanus]

Arabic word

 

[OhMan]

 

[Internet Nomad]

Miskeen doesn’t have somali origin

 

[Internet Nomad]

Thats how i speak to gaalo

 

[Sophisticate]

No one cares. The origin of the word is not that relevant. And most people realize he learned it from Somalis, who overuse the term like no one else. It is pretty obvious what groups influence Toronto slang the most.

 

[Hotchick12]

The Arabs are saying why he put poor/unfortunate on their whilst in Somali meaning it means innocent or sometimes the same meaning as Arab

 

[Bazed]

Why are people so quick to link this to Somalis? Like the term isn't used by many ethnicities. Also this mfs ex was Moroccan, maybe that has something to do with it. The tweets just love to keep Somalis in their mouths.

Miskeen is not a somali word. It is an Arabic word that Somalis loaned.

But seeing as drake wrote it in English it is probably from Somali inspiration.

I never understood that but I suppose it has to do with the Toronto diaspora. But I saw the tweet talking about it and all the quotes were mentioning us. Can't simply accept a 38 year old man is having a mid life crisis or something.

 

[Chaseyourdreamzz]

This has nothing to do with arabs malis made that word popping in Toronto

 

[Keep it a boqol]

everyone in the GTA knows somalis popularized miskeen to gaalo

I’m seeing arabs from around the world going crazy on twitter little do they know

 

[Gacmeey]

If miskeen is not a Somali word, then victim isn’t a English word.

Futhermore, if he wanted the Arabic word he would’ve written مسكين rather than the miskeen.

Miskeen is toronto slang now meanin “civilian”. Its totally lost its Arab meaning which is poor

 

[AbdiFreedom]

His manager is a Cidagale dude from Ottawa while his entourage is full of Somalis. It's also a Canadian slang word created by Somalis. It's obvious it's from Somali influence. Other words include gaari, buktee, kawaal, dilo, and others.
