I really like that webpage. The translator did an excellent job of finding the most accurate Somali words for every English word used on the page.

“ The BBC Somali seems to hate Somali names for the planets“

I only have few criticism.

I’m clueless for those three words. Hut = Hoy goojo ah? .

Waxaan xirtaa cabir toban.
