I love uunsi, saad(those glittery wedding diracs) and catarr.

Lately, I'm able to understand the advanced af somaali used in the old somali songs, gabay and buranbuur.

They are soo rich and deep.

Naf ari. Upon the completion of an carish or other major project a goat would be killed and cooked with enough rice to feed guests and the miskeen in town.
