Somglish name writing.

[MoonLight1]

Did you notice the wide spread of mix English & Somali name writing on daily life business. I specially noticed it with my local xawilaad office

 

Instead of using pure Somali writing or pure English, there is a new formula I call (Somglish)

here are some examples.

 

Maxamed Omar instead of Mohamed Omar or Maxamed Cumar.

Cali Hussein.

Xamdi Noor.

Jama Ciise.

 

etc.

Waxaa ku lablaboodaa oo mar mar xataa inaa hunqaaco iga keento kuwa qoraalada Afsoomaaliga ah warbaahinta ku qoraayo haddana adeegsado ereyo qalaad iyagoo og kuwii Soomaaliyeed jiraan. Tusaale iyagoo rabo inay qoraan Muqdisho ayee ku qoraayaan 'Mogadishu.' Soomaaliya waa 'Somalia' Soomaali waa 'Somali.'

 

Gafka ugu weyn waa shaqaldheerkii dhan ayee meel iska dhigaayaan. Qaarkood warbaahinta dowladda u shaqeyaan. Waxaa ugu wacan qoraaladooda malaha tifaftire. Kii qoray ama tii qortay ayaa iska soo giliso, qof ka daba tifaftiray ma jirto.

 

Waxaa iigu yaab badnaa markaa arkay qoraalo badan oo ciidamada badda ugu waceen 'mariiniska.' Yaq. Maxaa ku xigo? Madaxweynihiina 'barisideentaha' Soomaaliya maala soo wadaa?

Saaxiib Si Wacan Baad Iigaga Qoslisay, Ilaahey Hakaa Qosliyee :D

 

Aniga Waxaas Dhan Maba U Fiirsado, Waxeyga Waa Akhri, Daawo Oo Ka Dhaqaaq, Marka Lurba Iguma Hayso, Waxaa Laga Yaabaa Inaan Kuwa Waxaas Qoray Aan La Mid Ahay Marka Mala Yaabaayi

While we are on this subject, I find your usage of sentences containing both English and Somali clauses just as strange. Yacni, why do you do that? Aniga aragtidaydu waxay tahay in qofku uu isticmaalo one or the other (but not both) in any given sentence.
