the best somali dialect

Ok, sorry for the mix up but my point still stands. Tigrinya has a certain accent which makes it different from Amharic (even though I acknowledge they are two separate languages & Tigrinya would be more comparable to the Eritrean dialect, they(Amharic & Tigrinya) both still derive from Ge'ez and are closely related). The difference in accent is this gluttural type sounds which are non-existent in Amharic, so that was where I was making the comparison but you're right it ends there.

As to Canadian accent vs. Aussie accent, there is definitely a difference that a non-English speaker could pick up. Take a newfie accent for example, it sounds more Irish than anything...and that would stick out when being compared to Aussie. The only dialects that I find hard to distinguish are the Arabic ones.:zhqjlmx:
no offence but why are tigreys and tingrinyas better looking than amxaaras
 
@TooMa'aan

Do you have Somali friends or relatives? You seem way too familiar with Somali.

That video with those siblings are speaking in the Waqooyi or Northern dialect spoken in Somaliland.

Lol, how do you tell the difference when you see them?? I can never tell us apart the few times that I end up running into a group from one of those ethnicities (including the Habesha Eritreans), they all just look Habesha to me:zhqjlmx: They may have slimmer faces though?

I have to admit, im a accent supremacist but I'm tryna get over it.

I finally understand white people's fixation on ebonics

No, I don't...lol, hopefully that doesn't come off as weird:O27GWRK:, I just like different cultures in general tbh. :icon lol: And do all northern dialects sound the same or do they differ based on clan or sub clan?

this is a amxaar man

Tigrinya man



they are lighter and look more somali than u lot
They both look Habesha to me and I wouldn't be able to tell which was Tigrayan or which was Amxaar. The second guy definitely doesn't look like "typical Somali" to me though. And also, there are variances within the groups as well...not all Amxaar look the same and not all Tigrayans look the same...I can also cherry pick pictures to prove a point that is opposite to yours...but for what?

No that's cool I do that myself, but you must have been lurking/stalking Somali forums for years to pick up this much. Be honest. :stevej:
I've lurked somnet way waaay before I found this site but I didn't do it consistently and I didn't for years either. Maybe a few months on and off (mainly posts of Zack, Hawidian, and AwRastaale I believe lol...funny and informative:ftw9nwa::ftw9nwa:).

Hawdian / AwRaastle is the same person. He's an Abyssinian eunuch, don't take what he says seriously or base your opinion of Somalis on him. You only find people like him on the internet.

Are you sure they are the same person? I was kinda suspicious because they both use a similar personalized icon/avatar but Hawdian has a bit of different politics in comparison to AR lol, idc if they're both trolls or even the same person though-- it was more entertainment to me. :icon lol::icon lol: There are probably others that I liked also but it's been a while and I don't remember them all.

Lool somnet is the starter guide for Somali clan politics. My intro to Isaaq classes were taken there and it made me into a full fledged tribalist. Hawdian is a self styled Ethiologist :icon lol:. He knows the inner workings of Ethiopia its history and its people better than anyone else , he's also where I got most of my info on Ethiopia and its people from. Funny guy I refused to believe he was Somali at first but his knowledge about certain niche things like his clan and Hargeisa convinced me. But it makes sense now why you understand Somali so much. :icon lol:
