Beed (Arabic)= Ukun

Tomandho (e|nglish) = Yaanyo (Swahili)

Gidaar (Arabic) = darbi

Bisad (Arabic)= Mukulaal

Imisa = Meeqa

Kaluun= Malay

Walaal = Aboowe

Digaag (Arabic)= dooro

Daqiiq (Arabic)= bur

Foog = Fargeeto

Makhsin (Arabic)= qolka

Xashiska (Arabic)= Qashinka

 

Southerners use more original Somali words for nouns than we do.

[oba hiloowlow]

Shoodhe= Walaal

[Wadani]

Oba, thats djiboutian dialect. It's doesnt't mean walaal, it's slang which means something like 'young cat' or 'homeboy'.

[oba hiloowlow]

lol really some reer waqooyi friends told me shoodhe means little brother

[Wadani]

Yeah, the important part is the 'little', so they r right. it could be little brother, or a young homeboy.

Abaas, Mar hadii aad tidhi Qaamuuskii baa iga lumay waxaa lagaa doonayaa in aad Ayeeyo iyo Awoowe ka wardoonto ee ma'aha in aad eber ka soo bilaawdo.

oldest Somali word for cat older then Arabic language.

[Wadani]

Miyi ur right, for some reason I was thinking of Qitta...Arabic for cat. Bisad is definitely an old Somali word.
