There a couple of hills near Gabiley with that name Juffo Urey and anotherof wich I forget the name of
Jufo mici dheer is the other one? This one is in northeastern of Ogadenia, on the road between Aw-barre and Wajalle. It is a tall mountain with a peak on top of it. Its peak looks like canine teeth, hence the name.

Jufo also means more than 2 Jilibs.

As for the topic, Tallo is right. Gedoweb had it yesterday. But they must have edited.

Thug, is that mountain or hill part of a range? If so, it would make sense since. Also jili is a sub group of a jufo.

PO, to me the literal meaning of Jilib means the knee, and Jufo means more than two knees. For example, when a mother tells her daughter "naa lugaha is ku juf", she meant to say bring the two knees together.

There you go with the origins of the two words. :P

That was posted on gedoweb..I read it and was so annoyed then they edited it. Juffo means bigger sub clan..jilib is the closer sub-sub-sub clan

PO: Not sure 100% if it's a part of a range but I think you might be right

:lol: :lol: @"Naa dhi-dhibso"

Thug, I'm familiar with that one as well. Somali is indeed quite rich language. There are lot of ways to get your message. So lets not restrict it to certain villages. :lol:
