Cumarow,

We were there but referred to ourselves by our respective qawiils. Our culture has going a massive transformation in just 3 generations. The Anfar and some Oromos are a peak into the old Somali ways.

Diintu iyo luuqada wise they're alot of similarities, I've met one at my last job, she spoke Af Somali fluently but she was from Djibouti that would explain her comprehension on the language. Over all good people with rich culture. :up:
