Translation

The first person you call, when you meet them, something make u happy, that this is a person you like alot.

It is possible that you don't know really but you are saying to yourself, you are friends with this person.


What? :|

Kambuli abaayo statistics kaaga sax maaha. I call different people when I see different things. for example,

If I see a cute girl with a big butt, I call My home. If I see habar miskiin ah oo jidka kukufeeso, I call My Granny. When I see Manchester's azz kicked, I called another home boy. When I see asexy and romantic movie, I Call One of my girls.

So waxbaa kaqaldan statistics kaaga.

Hyper, I hope the translation of Gifted helped you..

Gifted, Now it is right :up:

Firefly,
Abaayo cidna lama kulmin.. :lol:

Madarkicis,
Dee wixii ka khladan sax adigu :up:

Sheeko, belo kula wuhuu laysey :down:

Madd,

Macruuf is an Arabic word..So Hyper should be able to explain it.. But the way we use in Somali is:

1. Macrruf baanu nahay...Waanu is naqanaa...We are aquainted with each other.

2. Macruuf samee....Asxaan samee..Do a favor... :up:

Ahhhhh now I get it!! What kambuli means is that, when you're happy about something, the first person that you tell or rush to tell is someone that is very dear to you, i.e someone you love, friend, family.
