American Somalis

[Hodan94]

the best english accent in my opinion is canadian and the worst is scottish

I guess u havent heard Geordie or Irish accent...maatag baa ku qabanaysa.

@ Brits. Ma xishoodan. There are Somalis who have been living in England for 30 years and don't speak a lick of English. There are Somali kids born and raised there and take ESL courses well into intermediate/high school. Maxubo Fabulous oo shalay timide ayaa dhama kuwaa inlaa 91 Southall degna.

Canadian accents hit the spot though

Ilaahey baan kugu dhaarshey waxey ku faaneyaan bal eega. But I suppose it's only natural when you're a ref with no country to go back to. SMH

Well said walaal, well said indeed.

Visiting DC New York City and other states Black and White americans seem shocked when i speak. I apperntly "sound white".

There is no such thing as a noticeable Canadian accent unless you're talking about the Maritimes or rural dwellers ....most Somali Canadians are from Ontario and the accent is very neutral.. somewhat similar to some places in the Northeastern U.S.

You two should just have sex and fuck off, no one cares about what you consider appropriate or not.

There is a 'Somali' accent though loool but not a fob one..... It's comparable to how you can tell someone is white black or Asian on account of their English , not in a fobby way but in like an accented way... Ill post examples. I can switch between this 'Somali' accent for fun or just remain in my natural ontario/California accent

my accent is quite neutral, and a mixture of many accents.
This is because i grew up in the Emirates and went to a British school where most of the teachers were from the UK,
but allot of my friends had general american accents.
A few years in that environment and even british kids start to have their accent merged into some mongrel version.
It all depends on what people speak around you, after 7 years in Sydney, for a couple of years people noticed my accent was Australian, buts its has greatly diminished.

The good thing is that i can put on accents randomly .
I have the same experience with arabic , my normal accent is adeni and khaleeji, but when i am talking to egyptians i find myself slowly changing to egyptian, the same with lebanese /syrian.

i would advise you never to talk with an egyptian accent nor pick up their dialect. it sounds so weird and ridiculous and like another language. they should have another language called EGYPTIAN

What's wrong with Egyptian Arabic I thought it was the best? And that's what I'm currently learning

Because studying Egyptian Arabic is like trying to learn English in a Liverpool accent. It's better if you learn fusxa.

BTW, aren't you a cushitic/Irir supremacist? Why do you want to learn Arabic.

Some Egyptians are non Arabs , I hope to Free them from Arab oppresion by shukaansi ala Egyptian Arabic... plus I like learning languages and meeting new women

af gaal baad no faanaysa nacala somali kugu taal.

All languages have been from Allah, if you hate speaking english so much I suggest you don't, which you can hardly do.
