    This is no joke, what if someone made a similar joke about burco or harigesa or some other city? I'm sure libaax sankataabte or some of his minions would delete the topic or even ban the member.

     

    I want this latin wannabe's head on a platter.

    Bosaso gets really hot in the summer I understand, lets hope it's the heat that's messing up your mind.

    This comment is offensive, what does his region have to do with his opinion? I don't know why you're not banned? Or is it because you're part of the 'old boys club' in here?

     

    Seriously this place lacks any diverse opinion and creativity, This place is a breeding ground for thoughtless robots, who think just because they have a western degree, they are above everyone. Reminds me of fox news and libaax sanka-taabte is the CEO.

    I think it all boils down with the roles women played for centuries. Most of these roles were they were teachers, nurses, housewives, midwives etc. The reason being Allah swt created us to be more emotional than men. This does not mean women are weaker than men or less important. Just we are more emotional and that’s not a bad thing. One needs to be emotional if they are going to be more aware of other people’s feelings. I mean really you see that women share more with their friends/family than men. You are not going to see a man sharing with his friends with anything very detailed or personal where women share more and comfort each other more. They are more understanding to each other. Where maybe men would laugh at their friend and be like why are you being emotional, move on, be a man. This does sound generalization but believe me its true in most aspects. There is always exception to the rule.

     

     

    That is not to say men don't have feelings believe me they do, the prophet csw was a very caring and generous man. It's only about relativity.

     

    Also you did notice when it comes to funerals women are not allowed to be present when the dead is being buried, cuz allah swt knows that they are very emotional and that whole incident can just a bit too much for them to take in.

     

    Inshallah this is just what I think, perhaps am not right. Just you know my opinion…

     

     

    salaam

    I dunno about other men, but I'm very in touch with my feminine side, in fact I enjoy crying for absolutely no reasons and I am very emotional, thank you very much!!! icon_razz.gif

    I consider myself an individual, maxaa iga shaqo jiro waxey somalida sameeyaan or not. Ama ha is dilaan am ha is magaan, ama yee wax baranin, what somali people do is not a reflection of of me as an individual.

     

    We should all be more individualistic and worry about number 1.

    couldn't figure out the first line
    :(

    I look for peace but no'in is to rain

    cuz in the desert it will only rain pain...

    now look at this

    I see some ships that have no business here

    I try to run the sea am not that fast

    I trip and fall and barely escape the blast blast

     

    cuz Dayless nights

    I see some pirates in the ocean late at night

    they move around and just can't wait to fight

    watch out for the pirates in the ocean late at night

     

    Dayless nights

    I see some pirates in the ocean late at night

    there is never peace somethings will never change

    watch out for the pirates in the ocean late at night

    Meditate could I have lived if I have never strayed

    wait

    this is somalia people am afraid

    I have no lemons to make lemonade

    and so excused

    I know I have only known the tragic broken rules

    Got no'in to eat and really no'in to lose

    it is do or die and am prepared to blow fuse

     

    cuz Dayless nights

    I joined pirates in the ocean late at night the thing I said will never make it right

    watch out for the pirates in the ocean late at night

     

    Dayless nights

    am in the darkness I cant seem to find the light

    there is never peace somethings will never change

    watch out for the pirates in the ocean late at night

     

    Got my wish I caught a ship to eat instead of fish sticks

    when i get paid I will live the life I missed

    we caught the Alabama Maersk Ship

    but what a risk

    The tide switched and captain Philip has been stationed braving this

    they came to save him and am glad hes free

    and now the Navy Seals shot me shot me

    now am free from the dayless nights

    I joined pirates in the ocean late at night nothing I said will never make it right

    watch out for the pirates in the ocean late at night

     

    Dayless nights

    am in the darkness I cant seem to find the light

    there is never peace somethings will never change

    watch out for the pirates in the ocean late at night

    the first line is

     

    'i gotta tip toe over dem land mines. '

     

    second line is 'i gotta look for peace but not in this terrain'

     

    but everything else is good. smile.gif

    These days you find many people whose Somali language credential are questionable presenting their own substandard way of speaking the Somali language as the correct way to speak Somali. Many of the Somali films made in North America can’t be considered serious as they use slang in their dialogue. Also sometimes when you watch people being interviewed on Somali television (Universal) you see just how poor peoples Somali is.

     

    Just because the majority of Somali people speak colloquial Somali doesn’t mean it the right way to speak Somali. Unfortunately those who are learning in Somali are learning from people who have a poor grasp of the Somali language.

    - notice how she adds 'o' at the end of every sentence! if she learnt proper somali she wouldn't speak like this!

    Qof oo weligiis somali qorin , oo oday cadaan ah cabuudo muxuu somali sax ah ka yaqaan?

    Somali language is actually easy and simple, it's written the way it sounds(phonetically) . The difficult comes in increasing your vocabulary and knowing that there are different dialect and different words could have different meaning depending on the regional dialect. I actually think speaking the language is more difficult than writing it.

     

    The following might be helpful:

     

    A few words about the spelling of Somali:

     

    Consonants in Somali are for the most part the same as English except for the following:

     

    J is always pronounced as j in 'jet'

     

    G is always pronounced g as in 'get'

     

    The Somali language has no P, no V, and no Z, so when Somalis speak English they will often substitute the sounds b, f and s respectively; the English 'p' sound is particularly difficult for Somali speakers. Th and Ch are not present in Somali, but Sh is.

     

    X, Q, C, Dh, and KH, are used to represent special consonant sounds in Somali which do not have English equivalents. While Kh is similar to the kh in "khakhi' and 'khan', the other four sounds you should hear pronounced by a Somali speaker. They are very difficult for English speakers to reproduce -- or even to hear accurately and are often completed ignored. A simple example will illustrate this: the conventional Anglicized spelling of the proper names Ali and Hassan would be written as Cali and Xasan in the Somali orthography, reflecting the presence of the c and x consonants"

    Dr. Orwin martin, who is this professor who wrote the book? and where did he learn somali, I just googled him and it's interesting that they offer somali learning class at SOAS.

     

    I'm gonna look for that book. It's too bad it was written by a non somali though.

    There is really nothing wrong with divorce per se, the whole idea of staying with the same person for eternity is not appealing or realistic anymore. The whole idea of 'death due us part' only made sense when people life expectancy was considerably shorter than today, when we live up to 80 or more years.
