See you are a qaldaan, you know what wiif is Laughing

I have absolutely no clue what wiif means in this context. I have always heard of Qaldaan Wiif used to refer to Northerners. Never investigated what it meant.

The word Wiif is literally the sound a thrown stone makes, and when you throw a stone, you wouldn't know where it would land. Now, Northerners came to the South with no target and no P.O. Box, they came rushing, talking fast, and gesticulating a lot and the Southerners didn't know where these ppl were heading, so they said they are Wiif

Lug, that's an interesting explanation... mano alifeesa walaalo mise run waaye? Laughing

Mike, there you have it and it kind of makes sense. I will call you Mike Wiif from here on that would aptly describe you, since half the time I'm not sure where you are coming from or going to Laughing

Going in circles then ? Or as Lady Demure said, not knowing whether we are coming or going ? Laughing Laughing

What i've found

1. wiif verb: go round and round (like a merry-go-round), spin
2. wiifi verb: spin, make go round and around; cause to run quickly

Siur Logooyo,

Ma hadaad dareentay habartan Kuumba Kuutali, waar habartaan wax ka munaafaqasan ilaahay ma abuurin, ilmada yaxaas-ley weeye, siday Hoogay iyo B'ayeey somaaliyeey u leeday, ayuun baad arkaysaa ayadoo googaradiiba u faydatay Daaroodnimo oo miyir l'aba.

Weligaa arki maysid ayadoo qabiilkeeda runta ka sheegaysa, ma aha Majeerteen ee waa Daaroodka waqooyi , ama waa Warsangali ama waa kuwii Dig Digt iyo Daraawiish sheegan jiray ee kaadida Ina Cabdulae Xasan cabi jiray.

waa naagta ugu munaafaqada badan somalinet, waxay kaga dartay markay qaraxado ayay Ilaahay iyo Diin ama naagnimadeeda ku gabataa, waaa Ebola Virus.. habartaas Kuunta Kuutali.
