    For the somali sisters and brothers (OP)




    Mashallah, i have noticed that in this forum there are lot of somali ppl. Im somali sister, too (suprise ) and i would like to get to know you, insha Allah. And at the same time learn the somali language with you. I know it is much easier to write english but let us try to write in somali islamic threads.
    I can tell you that my somali is not that good but i will try, Insha Allah.

    First let me introduce myself

    Walaalayaal waxaan ahay inan soomaaliyeed oo diinteeda jecel, isguna dayeysana iney sii barato si wanaagsan, Insha Allah. Waxaana daganahay wadan ka mid ah wadamaha scandinaivia. Waxaan wadankaas dagnaa muddo 17 sanno ah. Alxamdulillah, waxaan ka soo baxay jaamacadda waxaana halkaas ka bartay kemistiriga ( im not sure if you write that way ). Imikana waan shaqeeyaa. Walaalayaal waxaan niga codsanayaa inaad idunkuna sidaas isku sheegtaan haddaad rabtaan ma aha khasab, Insha Allah.

    I think your right sister, I like Xalwad but just a little at a time, otherwise I get a mad sugar rush.

    Re: For the somali sisters and brothers

    I think we Somali's have major issues with the amount of sugar we put in our tea and Ma'a Ma Aaan (Thats probably spelt incorrectly lol). At work when ever tea is offered to me and I ask for my usual 3 teaspoon of sugar, everyone thinks I'm some sort of crack head on sugar, and thats when I'm holding back on the amount of sugar I actually want lol.

    Do we have issues with Sugar or isit totally acceptable to have 3-4 teaspoons of sugar in your tea?

    I use to never drink tea, like never, until I entered the world of...The Office Worker...full of 40 tea breaks a day and 99% of the work force is living on Coffee, without it their life would fall to peaces and arguments and stress would mulitply by 2000%.

    course we got an issue!! do you know what the annoying thing is? the fact that when you go to somebody's house they just give you the tea and you dont have a choice how much sugar you want !

    Thats when you start bringing in your own little bags of sugar, that is unless its too much sugar (is there such a thing).

    Just 5 times in your life? Not even shaah caano when you were a kid? It's a surprise to see a Somali that has drank so little of tea. I must have atleast 5 a day to open my eyes... 'when the sweat oozes, and clarity lifts the hues of caajis from the shoulders of sight. As Somalis say: 'Raggi waa shaax, dumarina waa sheeko' or Men are to tea as women are to gossip. Ahem. A bit harsh, I know but that's the camel boy mentality for you. Typical geeljire.

    Intaa ka dib, waxaan dhamaantiin idin ku salaamayaa salaanta salaamaha ugu qaalisan, oo ah mid ay ku dheehan tahay raxmad iyo kalgacayl. Salaantaasi oo ka soo go'dey kasha iyo laabta, oo uu carrab oraah macaan bartey idiin soo gudbiyey. Phew! One learns about such formal Somali greetings when reading letters for Islaamaha qararafsatada ah.

    Anyway, I am glad you brothers and sisters are eager to learn more about Somali, and it would be an honour to be here when you - to learn and to hopefully understand more of our rich language. Been teaching the little Somali I know as part of the UK GCSE for sec. school Somali kids for a few months now, and everytime I go through the teaching materials, I never fail to discover new wisdoms or murti deeply-set in the very fabric of our language. From the poetry to the folk-tales, from the grammer to the literatures, Somali is indeed a poet's language. We were not called the Nation of poets for no reason, I suppose.

    Writen too much I guess but forgive me. I am here before my usual somali forum is today offline hence why I am here.

    Err...did I introduce myself horta? guess not.

    Walks off... puzzled
