    Birta tan waxa loo yaqaan "sinigaali" oo tumaalaha ayaa adeegsada marka la samaynayo dusuuda nooca la yidhaa Sinigaalada Laguna karsan jiray Soorta/Shuurada etc.

     

    that is my nearest non-archaeological assumption from the looks of it. 5000 years will almost pass as the stone age in the horn of africa.

    I am not cognizant about the protocols to follow in dating non-organic artifacts, but an accurate dating will vanquish the doubt.

    LOOOL, true, just because some Cadaan in the UK said something that must bake it true. Then again they did predict the collapse of Barre's regime and the animal actions that would happen so maybe he is right
    :D

    You don't need to predict 1) Every brutal dictator regime have collapsed 2)it was just one prediction they got right.(probability)

    waxa mudan in maanka lagu hayo, Af-celinta si qumaati ah looma fulin karo, had iyo jeer ereyga waxa lagu turjumaa hadba sidii uu ugu jiro weedha, mana fududa in si caydhiin loo turjumo.

    "Soo-jeedin" is rather an attractive translation....

     

    Advice = waano

    Advicer/consultant = la taliye

    Recommend = talo/ soo-jeedin.

    Recommendations = talooyin

    Abbaas use the word needed to translate in an appropriate context BALIIS.

    My arguments are actually quite well structured and relevant to the topic, I'm sorry you can't follow.

     

    But sure, here are some figures -- infant mortality rates by country (
    ,
    ), maternal mortality rates by country (
    ,
    ), obstetric fistula in
    Somalia
    (
    ,
    ), women's literacy rates in Somalia (
    ).

     

    Some key points and excerpts from the links and reports:

     

    - under five mortality rate is 225 per 1,000 live births (placing us in the bottom 3 in the world, in some rankings #1)

    - one in 10 Somali children die before their first birthday and one in 12 women die from pregnancy related causes (bottom 2 in world)

    - less than 30 per cent of the country has access to safe water

    - acute malnutrition afflicts 17 per cent of children

    - 2.12 million Somalis, more than half of whom are children, were in an Acute Food Security Crisis in 2012

    - estimated incidence of obstetric fistula per 1000 deliveries is 3-5

    - adult literacy rate: 49.7% of men, 25.8% of women

    Saffarz, I had this argument with wadaada on so many occasions and I came to realize health reasons are the only way you can get them to give you attention....Never mention poverty...Just the Horrible infant and maternal mortality figures (we are world champions)...improving such conditions as healthcare usually increases the public awareness to the tremendous damage done by unplanned pregnancies, this has been tried first hand in Somaliland. Read about how only Adna adan training midwives has dropped the figures and yet coupled with them the average children a man could have. .....

    ragga mashquuliya, iyagaa idin ka jeesane...my advice to feminists.

    Speed = Xawaare

    Velocity = Kaynaan

    Acceleration = Karaar (I think this is more appropriate than xowli and this is how i remember it from Fiisigiska)

    Deceleration = Karaar-jab

     

    Nuune, That link you provided, I should thank you again...Waa Manjam.

    I'm talking about statistics and development indicators, and you're giving romanticized images of nomadic and rural poverty. Do you know how many Somali women back home are illiterate because our culture deems it more important for them to be wives and mothers than to be educated? Or that many of these large 'merry' nomadic families deal with chronic malnutrition? Did you know Somalia has one of the highest maternal and infant mortality rates in the world? That our women deal with birth complications related to female circumcision, and that obstetric fistula - a condition where women are literally ripped open by childbirth and can no longer hold their urine and bowel movements - is a massive problem in Somalia, because our women start having children too young for their bodies to deal with pregnancy and childbirth?

     

    And I hope I don't have to explain to you what all of this means for Somali society as a whole, and what economists, political scientists and development analysts have shown about the links between women's health and wellbeing for families and society as a whole. Countries like ours continue to fail so long as that's the reality for women and children. You don't need to be a parent to understand what's at stake here.

    actually its not the number, its how the mother gets the number...Provided there is good family planning and sufficient obstetric/Gynecologic care for the mother let them have as much as they want.understanding the female psychology in Somali inhabited lands is vital where a woman is valued by how many children(boys) she pops out (naagi Guri hakaaga jirto ama god hakaaga jirto) .... Financial reasons are not justified because as Muslims we believe Ilaahay baa arsaaqda bixiya, Risiq works in mysterious ways. in Suurat al Isra'a ((And do not slay your children, by burying them alive, fearing penury, poverty. We shall provide for them and for you. Slaying them is truly a great sin.)) I find this ayah applicable when one argues children are risk of progeny. ....

    Guntii iyo gabagabadii....For Health reasons (living in underprivileged area, poor family conditions not able to provide health service, previous obstetric complications etc ) are all deemed to be right reasons to stop producing progeny....but fear of poverty...Well dib ha loogu laabto.

     

    PS: Xaaji NORF is advocating with gusto against limiting number of progeny because the damage is already done, Jabhad idil buu kaga soo daadshay...loolz..saw maaha abti.

    Mainly Bosaso, but I will also visit Hargeisa.

     

    I have a rather perverse question I want to ask, and I really hope I am taken seriously.

     

    Can you find condoms in Somalia?

     

    Is it difficult to get with the local women? Where are the places to go?

     

    thanks

    caadhka lagaa goo. buying condoms is one thing and I encourage it, but planning the faaxisha, acuudibilaah....Read some quraan niyaw, I would recommend start from the first Ayah on last page of suurat al furqaan.

    Recommendation = Doorbiditaan.

    Doorbiditaan = preferring

    Waxaan doorbidayaa = I would prefer

     

    Recommendations = talooyin (erey ka sii haboon baan ku soo fikiri waa xilli danbe imikee)

    Feature = more emphasis please...according to use, Remember sometimes Direct translations will not do the trick and you might need to replace the whole words.

    We all know Axmed Gurey was Somali. What is this khuraafaad Coofle is spewing? :mad:

    Dee waa inagiiya, marka Itoobiyaanku inala joogaan baanu waxaa kale ku sheekaynaa.

    Futtuh-Al-Habash did not mention about Ahmed gurey being a Somali, while the book emphasized on tribes Fought in his army. that should give you a clue. Another fact, Soomaalidu waa dad cusub, at least woqooyiga before the three Sheikhs dad kale ayaa meesha ku noolaa..Even the name Somali is new.

    The Sayid of course comes first

    Ahmed Gurey

    Our first president Adan Cade

    Our second President Abdirishid Ali Sharmaarke

    Abdi Bile - inspired me

    The boys that liberated Godey back in 1977- wish i knew their names

    Ali Yusuf- the man who invented the first and only known home grown script- osmaniya script

     

    These people inspired me with their passion for their country and creativity

    The sayid was a Tribal delinquent and a religious fanatic. (Hitler of Somalia)

    Ahmed Ibrahim al Ghazi--Was not Somali, waa hadii aan runta isku sheegno.

    Abdirashid Sharmarke...Come on, the assassination made him famous.

    Abdi bile-- He was running for himself and his own future.

    The MEN of godey- They had to choose between a bullet from the back by a somali or die while fighting gaalo. no much option.

    Ali yusuf ... This is null....There were many home grown scripts in Somalia....don't use ONLY so lightly .

     

    Do you know who inspires, waa odaydii Soomaalidu ka soo tafiirantay ...how about those for a change of weather. in a real consensus Those ancestral Sheikhs will win in a landslide.

    The prominent Somali are many but are swept under the rug of tribalism and ignorance.

    Confusing topics (my life as a man of science and my studies recommend few babies, my spiritual and lust for kids dictate me to have as many progeny as an army) ..... I was relieved when I decided,,,,"Intii Ilaahay ii qoray uun baan dhali, saw awlaaduba risiqa kama mid aha" ... Family planning is different topic , Religiously and scientifically deemed to be good.
