So what is the truth?

Aren't you both from Mudug?

I pronounce it like Crow, but GBT who is from the same gobol as Crow doesn't. Shit don't make sense, how is their a difference in pronunciation of the same word in one gobol.

Got a nigga confused:kendrickcry::mjcry:
Is it a regional thing though? I don't think it is. Wiki says it's Mindi but Midi and Madi are also used, never heard of Madi lmao, but midi and mindi are both used in our house. https://so.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mindi

I've never heard Madi either.

I thought it was a regional thing as all the Landers from Awdal to Sool pronounced it as Midi. Everyone else (non-lander) said it as Mindi, with emphasis on the letter n. So I made an assumption thinking anyone who says Mindi is not from SL but from some other gobol in Somalia.

My mom grew up in Xamar so I have sadly inherited some of their jibberish. @GBTarmy is probably using the correct pronunciation.
