PUREST SOMALI DIALECT

[GemState]

Purest dialect is Mudug, but imo best sounding one is Konfuur

Galbeed dialect is more nomadic, more geeljire based. It has very little loan words.

that would make sense

 

[OffTheDome]

Waqooyi and Galbeed, nothing else even comes close


The rest are different dialects of Swahili and Italian

dude waqooyi is just a mix of Arabic and Somali get that outta here. Waqooyi <<<<Mudug or Galbeed

 

[Sloane Ranger]

What about all the different reer badiiyo accents they tend to have less loanwords ?

 

[alien]

so I've concluded that it's not waqooyi dialect because they be saying xabxab and laxoox
and not galbeed but mudug

Waqooyi > any other dialect
Before some of you niggas say we have Arabic loan words so does the Somali language in general
