How similar are Arabic and Persian?

[MARAQ DIGAAG]

This fellow has a nice channel comparing different languages and whatnot , that is , if you are into that jamaacatu linguistics stuff .

It is fascinating how Persian and Urdu have adapted the Arabic script to suit their languages .

I just discovered him the other day . Great dude ! The only error that I noticed is where he posted a video listing kismayo as one of the places where Zwahili is spoken .

Unacceptable.

Sometimes I see Somalis in the comment section asking him to do a video on the Somali language. I always see them in the comments of videos like these. Same thing with Caspian Report. I'm pretty sure the guy who runs that channel eventually did a video on it just to shut them up.

I ran into a a fluent Somali Cadaan speaker once in London . I kept it moving cuz I felt the fellow was police or MI5. I later found out that he was none other than the professor of Somali studies , DR Martin Orwin .

God bless that guy. If it wasn't for him, I probably wouldn't bother attending Somali Week poetry readings as my Somali is too weak. :/
