Right isn’t “Sax” it’s Birix or however you spell it, Sax means right!somali is an arabic dialect . face (weji) and right (sax) are both arabic loanwords.
I genuinely want to know why you guys care?The south is worse, the more their language is affected by the Semitic Amharic, Swahili and Italian words like ukun It's Amhara And several other words spoken by coastal residents are of Swahili origins
That shows you don't know what dialect even means .somali is an arabic dialect . face (weji) and right (sax) are both arabic loanwords.

You're walanweyn who doesn't understand 90% our Gabay maybe when you learn how to speak proper Soomaali you will understand it abooweNigga are you a poet how the hell do you speak classical Somali![]()
Xanaaq is Arabic for real?? Arabs use "Ghadib" and other words for angry also Never heard arabs using Quraac also??Quraac = breakfast
Xanaaq = angry
Tartiib = quiet / quietly
Face = weji
All from arabic among others, what makes this worse is we have SOMALI equilevant for these words.
I want to know who and when did somalis start using arabic words for a basic emotion (angry), for our face (weji) and also for quiet (tartiib)
Magnificently huge L for us somalis, how idiotic we gotta be to use loanwords for basic stuff. Open your eyes people, shit is ridiculous
You think I’m Hawiye? I’m Darood. We taught you guys the Somali language, I have a reer mudug accent like my ancestors. I believe I speak the best Somali, don’t sound Indian like you saxiibThat walanweyn guy thinks he knows af Soomali very well while speaking in a bastardised somali dialect kkkk![]()

Finally someone who understands the logic. We have indigenous Somali words, you call their method flexing on others I call it isnaceyb, they hate their identity therefore would create fake narratives in their heads so maybe others can accept them.We have loaned words who absolutely have no need, why a lot of us somalis say tartiib when we can say aayar, same shit. Extreme laziness from somalis in this regard.
Honesty is needed, some of the
”loanwords” we have came from flexing arabic speaking somalis who wanted to showcase that they know arabic.
Similar thing is happening today where english speaking somalis will randomly drop 3-4 english words while speaking somali, what was the reason to do this, Imma tell you, to flex on others.
Xanaaq is Arabic for real?? Arabs use "Ghadib" and other words for angry also Never heard arabs using Quraac also??
Maybe it southern Arabian loan words from ancient arabs
Wallahi, we lack basic infrastructure but they think the real issue is that some niggas are learning Arabic.Even more misplaced priorities. You guys complain about the wrong things
Xanaaq is Arabic for real?? Arabs use "Ghadib" and other words for angry also Never heard arabs using Quraac also??
Maybe it southern Arabian loan words from ancient arabs
xanaaq is old arabic. not really used much. ive heard quraac is old arabic too, but i cant find anything on itUpon further research, the words xanaaq and quraac are of somali origin, because I checked online and no arabic translation listed quraac for breakfast or xanaaq for angry.
Some words we share with yemenis could be either from us or for from them, depends on the words.
I might have been too harsh on our forefathers![]()
If you taught us af soomaali as you say then why most poets come from us and the gabayada be in our accent but not daarood accent??You think I’m Hawiye? I’m Darood. We taught you guys the Somali language, I have a reer mudug accent like my ancestors. I believe I speak the best Somali, don’t sound Indian like you saxiib![]()
