SB: Dude, your somali, among other things, needs a makeover. LOL

 

Translation of your quote:

 

If you want to know the truth (reality) of her somaliness, come and sit on her lap, and I will whisper [the truth] into your ear.

Sheh not getting the hint that it's direy and not dirtey continues..

Sheh: ragaba waa la dirta but that's another story.

Heeeey, yaa ku dirtay? :D

 

I'm afraid I say this a lot so if it's wrong, I'm wrong a lot. Who'll explain it to me, cause I don't see the problem? Thanks.

As if your Somali is any more intelligible!

 

 

My Somali is modest. I'll demonstrate. I know the difference between dirtey and direy. The former means call. The latter means send.

 

Now, how you like 'em apples heh?

S_B, why are you embarrassed? I think it was quite a good afford for a non-Somali speaker like you.

 

If you strive hard enough, then maybe one day you'll master our beautiful language, don't be discouraged or embarrassed you'll come through it inshallaah.

 

BTW there a few non-Somali people, who have mastered Somali, so there's hope, although Somali is a very "difficult" language to learn for "outsiders" like you!

Yaa Muqafal, embarrassment would be understatement is this case.

 

I don’t know if you’re trying to be funny or serious but direy and dirtey are just the same. The only difference is that one is used for lab & the other for dhaddig.

 

By the way, don't get discouraged, wixii kaa liita waad dhaantaa.
