Your talking about us having a problem with some letters in Somali, hell you guys eat up whole words.

Typical walaweyn sentence:

"Xaayoow saas maahoow waa yara nasanaayoo noooh."

Proper Somali:

"Waryeehe sidaas ma'aha ee waan yara nasanayaa."

[Cawar]

Qaldaans speak more Arabic than any other somali group/region...thats why when the somali writing was invented it was more conventional to use that of gobolada dhexe...like mudug etc.


Masar
Daaqad
Muqmad
Tariig
Laydh

And many other words are either Arabic or english.

[Enemy_Of_Mad_Mullah]

Walaweyn they speak:

Patois, although without a formal definition in linguistics, can be used to describe a language considered as nonstandard. Depending upon the instance, it can refer to jargon or slang, as well as to pidgins, creoles, dialects, and/or other forms of native or local speech. In many cases, class distinctions are drawn between those who speak patois and those who speak the standard or dominant language

@shimow

Bal adba..

[X.Playa]

shimow, what the hell is that shimow?? in the rest of the world any classical language is the language of poetry and art, even the Arabs would tell you " the language of the Quraan is the classical Arabic of the Badouin poets"

The Walaweyn speake creol Somali , half Baantu/Burtagiis with some Eelaay and Amxaara words like " Cajneero" or "dooro" for chicken which is a pure Amxaara.

The standard classical somali is from the land where 99% of somali poets originated from and almost 99% of all play writers and composeres. The Walaweyn ought to be ashamed of themselves when they claim they speake Somali never mind proper, its like an Indian teaching a Brit guy how to speake proper english

Your claiming the greatest poets are isaaq now? The greatest poets are dhulbahante and OGADEN. OGADEN ARE FAR SUPERIOR THEN ANYBODY IN POETRY
