^How does learning Arabic improve Somali? (im not being negative but i really wona know)

Somalis who speak Arabic are the worst abusers of the Somali language. They use so many Arabic words in their Somali sometimes it gets incomprehensible if you don't speak Arabic. They don't even feel ashamed of it and most Somalis (who don't speak Arabic) just adore it / look up to it, lol.

yacni ,ukhti,akhi etc etc,

especially the religious ones

In the west only youth mix Somali and English/Swedish/Dutch whatever, in Arabic countries old people who came here as adults screw up both languages

I think it perhaps has to do with that Somalis in the Middle East are more willing and motivated to learn the language compared to let’s say Somalis in Germany or Sweden. Religious affiliation etc.

New Qaxootis become fluent in Arabic within 1 or 2 years while some Qaxootis that live in Europe won't learn the language even after 20 years of residency.

Many Somalis here speak even better Arabic than educated Arabs..
