Baqas (Maqas) = scissors
Bacow = some type of fruit
Qiyaali = fantasy
Farjaano (Farmaajo) = cheese
Kibis = Sabayat/Chapati
Lanta = used as an expression (kalka iyo laabta isu saar, like Shamso food hees) laabta is an imaginary place that's next to wadnaha.

Spine = Lafta dheere
Undermine = qof markaad kadaba shaqeesid, uu wuxuu suubiyabo badashid.
Abdomen = canjirka u dhexeeyo caloosha iyo shafka.

When Somali folks used to write letters to each back when emails were not invented.
The opening of the letter would always start the same.

Waxaan kugu salaamayaa salaan ka soo go'dey kashka (inner feeling) iyo laabta (chest).
