A-Salam, Ohh Somali isn't as hard as many other languages. Most words are written how it's pronounced. Personally, I was born outside Somalia, my mother is from the Ethiopian region and I learnt the alphabet, Somaligaan qoraayo waa ka yaabee. It's easy, just learn the alphabet and you'll find yourself learning it before you know it, Insha'allah!:)
 
^Haa
No one taught me how to read/write it,,but I've always spoken it fluently,,Subxanallah we should be greatful,,Alxamdullilah Indeed.It is easy.Read what you see.write what you pronounce:thumbs_up .
Few years ago I wrote a letter and my mother was most pleased:D

Long live Somalia
 
^^^^ First time i wrote a letter in somali,abt 10 yrs ago,was da most horrible grammar ever.i kept inserting english and kiswahili words in it.:statisfie

But now i can definately write well thanks to some good friends of mine.
 
A-Salam, Lol yeah I find myself saying words like "playgareynayaa" or "buygareynayaa" and people back home don't understand. I guess we're so accustomed to speaking English here, it's become our language. But yeah, my relatives always think I have one of my parents next to me if I write in Somali. Habiibti, my mum whose been here for 18 years, does the same thing! So no sweat. :)

It is not hard at all sis,u just write what u hear or u can repeat to urself while trying to write. Most confusing part for me was da double letters like aa uu and oo. i didnt know when to use and when not to use. After few embarassing episodes,i got da hang of it.

but i still dont write in Somalia unless i have to:phew

A-Salam, Lol, yup us Aussie's use it too!:D It's hilarious though. When I went to Somalia for the first time in 2004, I used it without even realising the people around me didn't understand and they'd fall into a fit of laughter. Anyways, ii soo duceeya I have 8 chapters to study for my Biology exam tomorrow morning, about 200 pages :exhausted Waa soo studygareynaa lol!
 
salaam to alll of you,

to be honest u guys made me laugh is a good way. i was born in dubai and never been to somali. and had no somali friends.
been to somali around 1998. i was terrorised left and right. my somali was not really bad but thay had to pick on me.:-[

then i moved to uk about 2002. made lots of non somali friends and lost all the somali bit i know.
but hey somali Dictionary to the rescue.

i am telling u it saved me when we had a big family gathering. they could not belive how good my somali was and still is as they know all my friends are non somali AND I DON'T SPEAK THAT MUCH SOMALI AT HOME.

SO MY ADVISE TO ALL MY SOMALI BROTHER AND SISTER
GET THE FROM ENGLISH TO SOMALI DICTIONARY
IT WILL HELP U LOTS ESPECIALY IF SOME OF U LOT R GOING TO SOMALI.:statisfie
 
Wa alaykum as salaam to you Nasreen,

That's great advice sis. :statisfie

I too have a dictionary like that, but I don't know where it has gotten to.
 
:D :sl:

English....Japanese....Somali..

(Yes)......Hai.....Ha..

(Don't know)...Wakaranai.....Magaranaye..

(Giraffe)....Kirin.....Girrin

(Mother).....Hahaoya......Hooyo

(Gone)........Takai.....Tagay

(Silent).......Musei......Amuuse


:D :w:
 
lolz subhana Allaah i always used to say the one about wakaranai it sounds like wangaranaya and ha, but i didn't know bout the other ones, maasha'Allaah, shukran.
