The Bari dialect of maxaa tiri? Is it the odd one out?

[Northern Swordsman]

It's not, only similarity is the "Bowe", word, however, Bari says "Bowe", Banadir says "Abowe".

Bosaso is sing-songy, in sound, but the structure and sounds, is very much North-East.

What's the equivalent to 'Bowe'in waqooyi/waqooyi-galbeed

Walaal and sometimes huno but reer djibouti exclusively use huno and saxiib.

 

[Abu Hesi]

Bari dialect is similar to Benadiri, and I think its because of the historical coastal trading between Majeerteen Sultanate and Mogadishu.

Nigga is you crazy?

Bari iyo Banaadir maxaa iska galay? Not even close lol

There is a difference between regional accents vs word usage similarities, which is common through the country with exceptions arising from foreign influence viz. Arabic, English, Italian, French etc.

I am familiar with the North (NorthEast incl. Mudug, and NorthWest incl. Awdal) and West (S Galbeed). Sool and Nugaal are similar with slight differences on the periphery, so are Bari and Sanaag. Hargeysa is unique in speed, and so is Burco in delivery. Mudug of old is the same with noticeable differences in tone and pitch the far South one travels. Awdal is unique, and is closer to S Galbeed, albeit lighter, if more laid-back. Jibouti is also different with some similarities with Awdal with a lilt, and with heavy influence of French.

So is very noticeable with the elders, but not so much with the young, for instance elders from Ceerigaabo sound very similar to reer Bosaso, and vice versa. People from Wardheer sound similar to reer Mudug. Reer Las Anod sound similar to reer Garowe, again amongst the elders.

The shift is very observable in people residing border towns, or near the perimeter. Gabiley is a good example.

I am not familiar with the South, but from what I have seen, there is an Abgaal accent in Xamar, which is unique.

Postscript:
Did you know the word 'Boowe / Aboowe' has its root in Sanskrit, and in S India, it is 'Boove' with Indian languages Telegu, Kannada, Hindu etc not having 'W', instead using 'V', just like Indo-European languages incl. German.

lasanod dialect is much more similar to hargaysa and berbera dialect than it's to garoowe dialect despite the proximity to garoowe. This is what led me to create this thread in the first place.

People from Wardheere also do not sound like reer mudug, they sound more like speakers from hawd which is another northern dialect.

Lastly, Cerigaabo speech couldn't be any more different from bosaso speech.

Galkacayo, cabudwaq and goldogob speakers are actually much more similar to lasanod/cerigaabo dialects than the bosaso and garoowe is to lasanod.

Walaal, have you visited said regions? Have you got family members from said regions?

 

[Revolutionarry]

Walaal, have you visited said regions? Have you got family members from said regions?

no bro I do not but you do not need to visit those regions. We have plenty of folks from those regions with online presence.

This is how lascanod folks sound

folks from burco

folks from hargaysa


Compare that to bosaaso folks speech

It's clearly not the same.

By the way, one dialect is not better than another, that's not my argument at all. I genuinely wanna understand how the bari dialect evolved to become its own dialect despite all the dialects that surround it all sounding more or less the same.

See, that explains, for clips are not quite representatives of natives. Besides, spoken word by city dwellers is corrupted.

A few things to note:
a) You missed a important point re: elders, which signifies natives,
b) Most the people you might see in cities are implants, villagers, or recent immigrants. The average reer Hargeysa would not be talking to anyone on camera in the streets.
c) In the cases of Galkacyo and Bosaso, I have see more people from South than locals. In Las Anod, there are more reer Baydhabo than natives. In Hargeysa, I saw more Oramo than reer Waqooyi.

And you would know what I am referring to in terms of accents had you had family members of said regions.

 

[Al Adnani]

Malgacad isn't used in south.

Abdulaziz as an area only existed after 1930s that's when majerteens moved there and settled with the reer maanyo clans

Malqacad stems from Adeni Arabic. We say it in waqooyi but I didnt know benadiris did too

 

[Yusuf Abdi Ali Rashid]

True Af Waqooyi is only spoken in the environs of Gabiley, And It sounds like satanic drivel. I found Af Maay to be more intelligible.

Nah banadiris don't

 

[canjeeroiyoshah]

@Revolutionarry You actually believed the guys in your Bosaso video are natives kkkkk I'm going to guess you're a young guy that barely speaks the language. I'm not even that good but I can tell right away. The first guy is probably from Benadir, the thing about PL is you have people from all parts of Somalia.

These are the natives of Nugal and Bari
