Thanks, habey is right.

Somali is a nomadic language, i doubt there is an actual word for edit because there was no need for it back in the day

 

[waranlee]

soo habee ama soo diyaari ama soo hagaaji. Or Farsamee or even the word Edit itself is correct when Somalized. Like soo editgaree

Somalized words are good it sounds very weird.

What is the word for uninformed?

Yeah Somalized words sound weird, especially when trying to say them in past or future forms. Like "videoga buu ii 'Editgareeyay'

"aqoonlaawe" an uninformed person, "aqoon la'aan" Uninformed/Ignorant/lack of knowledge .

jahil(it literally means ignorant but can be used as uninformed given a suitable context)

Jaahil is too strong word plus it's also Arabic.

i guess so,aqoon la'aan like the other guy said is a good one

 

[SuldaanGuled]

@Kaleel

depending on the context i would either use badal, saxitaan diyaariyo etc.

Uninformed : kama war qabin, aqoon uu lahyn. ma ogayn, the first one is better suited i will say.

 

[daacad]

I personally use badal as edit but habee and hagaaji can also be used

 

[Kaleel]

What about popular? Google translate says caan but there's a difference between famous and popular.

its depends on how you say it for example, waa nin aad iyo aad oo (la yaqaan)meaning he is a very well known man/person.If that doesn't mean popular than i dont know what does,i may have another word if i rack my brain a little but this is all i got for now

 

[yuusufdiin]

Editka

 

[Hemaal]

Popular = Laysla yaqaan i think so

 

[Gambar]

There's a difference between well known and popular. Caan is popular.

The actual word for edit is 'tafatir', and the Somali word for editor 'tafatire'.

For example, this BBC Somali article on editing Wikipedia (emphasis mine):

"Wikipedia waa aalada Internetka ku jirta kaalinta 7-aad ee ugu caansan dunnida, 15% oo keliya oo haween ah ayaa ka ah tafatirayaal. In ka yar 15% haween ah ayuu macluumaadkoodu ku daabacan yahay.

Waxa aanu kala shaqayneynaa Wikipedia in ay sameeyaan 12 saacadood oo u gaar ah haweenka kuna dhiiriyaan in ay tafatiraan kuna daabacaan mowduucyo ku saabsan iyaga.

8-da Disember waxa aanu dooneynaa in aad ka qayb qaadatid, ku soo biir boggayaga, baro sidda loo tafatiro, kuna soo biir hashtaga #100womenwiki."
