Ina bucur bacayr you know so much about qabil fairytales for someone who isn't from that certain region were that story originated from

Somali's are Somali wherever you go. We all know a lot about each other

You're dealing with ciyaal say wallahi who don't understand basic Somali.

A lot of them can't even say that

 

[Bernie Madoff]

Yeah but didn't expect to see someone from the west to know about that story. Most of time xalimos in the west are clueless about qabils or fairytale stories like that.

Unless your a fob luna

 

[Yahya Liban-Lewis]

It's well known that reer waqooyis don't understand most Somali dialects outside of the north. Other Somalis, especially from the South, understand Maay perfectly fine. As a matter of fact, my father is fluent in Maay. Stop being ignorant yareey.

Your correct. This is very true.

Yes, I am a gal Canada. Such a fob that I speak fluent English

I literally googled Bucur Bacayr the other day and a certain (sub) clan popped up

Its all fun tho no disrespect, I don't have a problem with anyone.

This is a false narrative that needs to stop being spread around, ciyaal say wallahi are the biggest qabiilists. They act like keyboard qabiil analysts and linguists as evidenced by this thread.

Your correct. This is very true.

I am not talking about southern dialects either, I'm talking about af maay. If you struggle to grasp maxaa tiri/tidhi, you can't pretend to be an expert and proclaim you understand all Somali dialects let alone dialects that some consider to be an entirely different language.

Like I said to @Gucci mane the Sayid himself didn't understand D&M when he came across them. Do y'all even know what he said to them when he saw them?

Reer Hoyoo ma taalo need not speak on this.

The endless bickering is still going on?

I agree with you on Af Maay. When I went back to Somalia for dhaqan celis, I could understand the basic Somali, but when I first heard Af Maay I was like "WTF are they saying???". I agree with you that if you can't speak basic Somali, Af Maay or any other Southern dialect is definitely harder to understand.

You were saying reer waqooyis wouldn't understand alot of the southern people. Maybe not all but I'm sure we understand most of them. You said we didn't understand most. As if I wouldn't understand a fellow somali from kismayo


My mom's friend is rahanweyn and I fully understand her when she speaks somali to me or to her kids no difference

Af maay is whole different story of course I wouldn't understand.

 

[Grant]

If they were «Somalis» then they would be 1.0 and not 0.5 but NO! They aren’t recognized by the goverment. Nice retarded bait.

I have been criticized for my use of "Samaale", but I think this serves to underline the need for it. Anyone born in Somalia is a Somali, which is a statement of nationality or citizenship. To get to ethnicity, you need other words, like Bajuni, Banadiri, Reer Hamar, Somali Bantu, etc. "Somali", used by itself, can be seriously misleading when it comes to ethnicity/DNA.

The international academic community recognizes Maay as a LANGUAGE, separate from Maxatiri. What the Somali Government chooses to recognize is a political matter that is seen as such. The Somali Bantus are definitely Somali. What they are not is Samaale.

 

[Tenacious]

Where I’m from they refer to cad cads as Somali but never Bantus

Barawanis are not Somali nor Madow or bantus just bc a few lost people call barawanis Somalis does not matter.

You're literally just dragging everyone by the macawiis and diric
Very true, as evidenced by many of these kids on here. I would @ them but this thread will go down in flames.

No I said reer waqooyis don't understand people outside of their region (the north) for the most part which is true because you guys are not exposed to it. You're in the diaspora which is a different story. It's why you guys always tend to banter about non-waqooyi Somali and make fun of us.

Why would you name Kismaayo when we're talking about Af Maay, wouldnt Baydhabo be more fitting?

 

[Tenacious]

We seriously need a thumbs down option on this site. Now we have those typical creatures whitesplaining to us about what we consider Somali. Bantus being refered to as Somalis is a new phenomena, and is not one that came from us. Its those White NGOs who said these people are Somalis without our permission. They are not Somali and will Never be Somali. When I went to Xamar people looked at me weird for refering to these people as Somali but had no problems when I called them Bantus or Madow.

Not all Somalis are Samaale. Everyone claims different ancestor.

How wouldn't they understand talking to a Somali from another region. Aren't they both speaking somali? What difference would be besides the dialect.

They are both speaking the same language. If someone from Mexico can understand someone from Chile despite the different accent or dialect I'm sure someone from waqooyi would understand someone from Jubba land. Sure they will make fun of each other accents but to fully not understand just sounds plain stupid

Walahi, you're a troublemaker. I'd rather do that in my previously platinum thread

I'm not talking about Jubbaland, are you dumb fam? Why do you keep bringing up Jubbaland iyo Kismayo? Do you even know where Baydhabo is? Ileen you're reer Hoyoo ma taalo

Nooooo you said that a reer waqooyi people dont understand other somalis outside of the north. I brought up jubbaland as in example.
