A question for the Ladies..

[HELWAA]

Shirib

It doesnt matter.Calling ur wife naag to others sounds very cheap.

[Sakhraan]

i hate naag single 30 u dhow oo hadana sanka taagaysa

[surrender]

definetly i would be!! no naagtayda, no dhuqdayda, no haajiya. just first and last name/full name pls. eg. Halima Mohammed Farah.

[DisplacedDiraac]

I see nothing wrong with it

[xoogSADE14]

Oraahada "naag" waa la bah-dilay. Many negative words are associated with being female, the archives of this forum is full of males tyring to put each other down by accusing the other of being a naag. The term naag is no longer neutral or an objective term. Xaas is a better connatation. The only worse term than naag is "haween ta ii ama uu dhaxada" talk about TMI!!!

loool

I always found that abit odd, specially since that term is used in the most formal of settings i.e. when referring to the wives of esteemed individuals like presidents etc.

[Cumar-Labasuul]

Naagteyda is more like my woman or my lady, so how is that offensive.

[ina aadan]

Naagtaydii
xaaskaygii
xaajiyadaydii
intuba waxaay cadaynayan waa lahaansho, marka maxay idiinku kala duwanyihiin

no dhuqdayda , you know dhuq is the front of the choochie.

[Enlightened]

yes, I would be offended.

it's taboo in my household to call you wife "nagteyda". Naagteyda is disrespectful word. sounds like he owns you or something. I prefer gabadha aan qaabo, Xaskeyga or oridayda.

[OliveOil]

Of course I would never be offended...soo ma ahi "naagtiisa"


Erayga more offensive ah waa "Bilcaan"

Reer Gedo and Reer Galbeed use it

[Queen_Arawello]

it aint polite i prefer marwadayda/islanteyda/boqoradeyda

[Amethyst]

lool.

Not lahaansho, but a kalmaad implying "gooni-ahaan" adiga keligaa ineey kula "joogtoo".

Ps: Ilaah baa kuligeen oo dhan ina leh, by the end of the day...so no need to get caught up in the battle of the sexes.

[udun]

Naag is a derogatory term and one should not use it to refer to his wife. That is at least in my view and how I am raised. One should refer to his wife as "Xaaska" or "Xaaskayga".

Of course waa la'is leeyahay....he IS MY husband, she IS MY wife, she IS MY mother, he IS MY father...etc.

lol...In the context of Ownership? "Everything belongs to Ilaah", and nothing to people. Even Your parents are Walid -" protectors" of the naf that was granted to them. Not the "owners" of it. Anyway, my guess would be that the "leehaansho" ur talking about = "Belonging". As in Kabtaan, kabtaas beey "leehday". Ninkaas iyo naagtaas baa is "leh" lol. Not he owns her, or she owns him.
