We can't call the somali language "af maxaa" because some people feel a certain way about their identity in the country. If it has been confirmed that af maay is a separate language, why do the speakers object & insist it is not? If af somali & af maay speakers are the same, why are their languages different?I agree. Spanish and Portuguese are different languages so are Af maay and Af maxaa and they are both related the same way Somali is related to Oromo. It's just that they are Somali people as their abtiris goes to Sab and Samaale and Hiil etc.
Although Samaale and Sab might not be accurate or whatever they see themselves as Somali people I guess. The language is different. The same way Maxa (Spanish) and Maay (Portuguese) are different. The people are the same![]()
It's a different language but they're one people. Ask maay speakers themselves like @yuusufdiin.We can't call the somali language "af maxaa" because some people feel a certain way about their identity in the country.

Number 1 after Maay is far close to the somali language then to oromo. No. 2 Rahanweyn are somali without a doubt. The white old bastard @Grant needs go jump off a cliff if he believes their not. Also Why do the oromo have such an tendacy to go an migrate into somali land like they own it . They have heavily migrated to somaliland the live in somalia and they also live in Galbeed even though they have their own region. Abdi illy is stupid he shouldn't be pressuring them now but they have to be told to to leave one day. How is dire dawa a somali city when somalis now only consist of about 20%. What are they doing in jigjiga. Rather then protecting their own regions and try to get succession they are running around killing somalis in their own land. Wallahi oromo are mentally retarded.
Why don'the you get a 9-5 and life and stop monitoring a somali website with ur pathetic so called facts old man.Professor,
You are WAY out of your league. Prior to the Common Era, the Oromo and the Samaale were both just Southeastern Cushites. The Oromo greatly outnumber the Somalis. In DireDawa (the land conquered by the Dir) many Dir speak Oromo, but still identify as Somali. One interesting thing is that the Dir are "T" and the Hararis and many in Hararghe are Ethio-Semitic, not even Cushites with E1b1b.
Here is a relatively complete study of the Somali languages. Knock yourself out, or jump off as you wish.

just like how you spend ur retirement arguing with somalis about their history and trying to fact check everyone. whilst assuming u must be right because ur white. I have no time to listen to ur calcaal do me a favour and don't quote me again. Also you have been reported for derailing the thread. This is about Warning family in Ethiopia about the precarious situation between somalis and oromo not about ur website backed facts old man.I am retired. Why don't you learn to read? Maybe post a link or two. Unsupported personal opinions don't count for much.

Im sorry to hearMy friends uncle died.
Actually they killed a hundred. And they were mostly travellers
So af maay is similar to oromo. Af maay is usually called a dialect of somali by its native speakers however linguists have concluded that it is a separate cushitic language of its own with little sprinkles of somali words here & there.
So ur right about it being cushitic & i'm right about it not being somali.

If anyone of you have family members in region 5, advice them against traveling by bus or car, they should rather travel by air. the oromos are selectively targeting somalis, Jigjigga today is in mourning after 40+ mutilated bodies where brought back. the Oromo primates are cutting off womens breast, chopping people with machete and shower them in hot oil. the mutilated bodies i spoke of earlier are so disfigured, that they are gonna bury them in a mass grave.
be safe out there somalis
Nah f*ck abdi ileey and liyuu murtaddiin boolisThe oromos may have the numbers lakin somalis have the mainland Somalia who can supply them with wepons if needed, iskaa dhiicya niimanka

Dying in the sea, dying in the west on the streets, getting tortured left right center, getting mutilated. By arabs, oromos, xabashi, south africans, kenyans & whoever wants to join. We're like ants getting mushed by shoes.Somalis are dying out, nothing new to see here.
