Somali used to be a oral language, and our people were well known for being merchants, nothing wrong with having borrowed words.

arabic loanwords are Somali kulaha

this comes from insecurity and low self-esteem. they don't feel proud being Somali so they have to claim stuff that isn't theirs. Like AAs and the Egypt thing- no one will be satisfied as just a slaves descendant

our history is in the shadow of Somalia's current state, which isn't something you would like to be associated with.

Somalicentrism is a good idea but how we frame it is important. For example what is Somalicentrism? what are its points of reference?

What aspects of Somali culture do we use and what do we discard?
