Somali people steal but they make it better.

We stole couple of cuisines and we made it better.

We stole baasto iyo suugo from the Italians but we made it better, our suugo is delicious and has spices.

We stole baris iskudhaxkaris from Indians but we made it better.

We stole henna designs from Indians also but we also make it better.

We stole instrumental music from Arabs but our voices and language make it better.

We stole words from other countries but it sounds better when we use it.


What else did we steal? :siilaanyolaugh:

No one really knows the origin of henna, Indians were one of the people that have popularised it. That doesn’t mean it belongs to them.

Looool what is this self hating nonsense. Somali is a language, if Somalis borrowed so many words then their wouldn’t be the Somali language. Jamaicans speak patois, patois is not a language because it has too many loan words.

A certain tribe that shall not be named stole my parents houses in Mogadishu during the early 90s.

Any fellow sufferers from this?

Yup they snatched up atleast three houses.

My dad told me that i had a house waiting for me in xamar, it was not long until he told me all of the house were taken.

When AY took xamar the properties got blown up to smithereens. In this i found closure. I hope that the criminals involved got blown up with it.

Do we have a Somali tiramisu ? If not I’ll make one with the Somali touch.

Who did they steal the act of stealing from?

@Gibiin-Udug I think the word you’re looking for is influenced.

 

[Gibiin-Udug]

He probably already stole your guri.

@Mckenzie has already threatened to take me away from my husband, do you think he would leave my house smh.

The henna design? I'm not talking about henna plant, people fail to fully read the thread and make a judgment of the thread title alone.

We stole basto iyo suugo from the Italians and made it worse.

We stole henna from the Arabs and made it worse.

There we go again Mr Xaaqo of Punt
