Dad hore ayaa ka muuqdo. Xuseen Kulmiye Afrax. Xasan Guuleed Abtidoon. [Taloow manoolyahay?] Narration by the indispensable Cowke.

Are you ready for it? Ka joog yaaqeey. Here it goes, sheekada aan ka maqlay my family: My ilmohabreed cousin lived with her family in Qoryooleey district in early '70s. She had a tendency at night inay ku kaadiso under one particular tree, oo gurigooda u dhawaa, since musqusha gurigooda banaanka ku yaalay, oo kistoo dheereed ee ka cabsan jirtay. The tree, however, waxaa deganaa jiniyo, siiba kuwa 'Muslim' eh. They tried to tolerate, reasoning waa iska 'ciyaal.' Sadly, she kept doing it night after night, and their patience ran off. Maalin maalmaha kamid ah ayaa gabadhii lagu soo degay. Mid iyaga kamid ah oo cod nin leh ayaa ka dhex hadlay, sheegtay dhibaatada ee ku heysto iyo dulqaadkooda dhamaaday, waxeyna dhahayn maadaama aan Muslim ahayn ma rabin inaan wax u geysano gabadhaan laakiin danta ku qasabtay. In compensation, they demanded the next day ari loo qalo, the blood lagu daadiyo under geedka. The family did and that was it.

Daa'uud Waraaqle, I believe ereyga raas is an original Soomaali word, related to that Amxaaro word of same spelling and close meaning. And I thought "cape" in Soomaali meant jaan. It isn't always every Carabi-sounding word in laga soo borrow gareeye Carabta. No. I even believe fircoon [fir and coon] is a true, original Soomaali word, that doesn't mean Carabs did not borrow it from us -- the Quraan always uses the original words, including fircoon, which doesn't state where it originated from.

The somali ethiopian... What an oxymoronic as this. There is no such thing, never was and never will. It is as remote as the hyphen between Angel-Devil. Do not insult reer Soomaali Galbeed. What did Mark Twain write? Soomaali is Soomaali, Amxaar/Tigreey is Amxaar/Tigreey and never do their lands unite nor their peoples.

Seriously, however, I really do think Soomaali site owners really forgot the cardinal rule of warbaahinta: Trustship. It is better to report one verified news story a week than to report ten bogus, conjured up stories a day. If there is no point of trusting a site and what it reports, then the readership declines. Why would people waste time when they already believe wixii lagu qoro meeshaas run iyo been la kala kasi karin.

Ereyga 'raas' oo Soomaaliga ku jiro laguna magacaabay labada tuulooyinka labada gees ku kala yaalo ee Raascaseyr iyo Raaskambooni. Xaafuun xataa Raasxaafuun ayee ahayd. Ereygaan 'raas' oo aan la wadaagno ereyga ee Amxaarada isticmaalaan, koleey Amxaarada waxee u yaqanaan head or head of state, waaba tan keentay Xeyle Salaase la baxo. Again ereyga 'xeyle,' Soomaalida iyagana waala baxaan, oo saa u maleeyo isku micno ah kan Amxaarada. Ereygaan 'raas' diinta ay heystaan kooxda Bob Marley ee ah Rastafari or Rasta wuu ku jiraa, oo laga soo qaatay micnaha kan Amxaarada. Marka micnaha runta 'raas' ee Soomaaliga ilaa hada ma keenin, inkastoo aan u qaatay qarka sare laga wado, sida laan ama fiin camal, oo isku dhigmaan definitionka Amxaarada 'head' ah. Anyone?

Ruushka will soon launch one too, as well, and so will a pan-Africa one based in Koonfur Africa. Latin America already had a Spanish-speaking satellite channel, financed by Kuuba, Barasiil iyo Finisuweela. It is no brainer sooner they will launch an Ingiriis one. Looking all this, soon a competing one broadcasted from either inside Shiinaha or Jabbaan, or both, would emerge. Laga baray, laga badiye ayaa soo socoto. Been-Been-Sii had its exclusiveness too long and it is aging, starting from its radios. So is Sii-En-En, which sadly increased its American bias, especially the International one. I used to admire that one watching it in Kenya -- no longer.

Aduunyada maalinba waxbaad baran baa la yiri. Ma aanan ogeyn Sunni Somalis would fight alongside Hezbullah Shiite iyo inay Somalia leedahay uranium. Both Galgaduud and Buurhakaba uranium ayaa laga helaa. Hiiraan, though unproven, too has it. Ciidamadii Mareykanka iyo Faransiiska in early '90s ayaaba ka rartay Buurhakaba wax ee Soomaalida waagaas u maleyn jireen "ciid" or "carokaawo," oo isweydiin jireen waxee ka rabaan "ciiddaan" ee markab u saaran jireen. And about Soomaalida u dagaalameyso Xisballaah, waxaas sheeko baraleey waa dhaaftay, sheeko Beenhawaas ee mareysaa.

Adiga maxaa dhaantaa other lurkers, who guiltily indulge this forum daily, reading? Kiib riidhin' biibol, waste your precious time with what we nonsensically write. The more eyeballs the more audience, the more audience the more you make the site more going. So, bring your eyeballs on.

Maad Huseen Iimaan iimeelsheey ani kii soo diri doona, laakiin meey haaya kaaga. Isiiba kaaga nafsheey.

Waajid, Shariifka dadkiisa ayuu badbaadinoyaa. He has his people's support, waa gartiisa, meesha Amxaaro iska soo dhoobtay lagu daadan doono waa dadkiisa iyo dhulkiisa. Xaq ayuu u leeyahay in uu aado meeshe dan ugu jirto dadkiisa iyo dalkiisa, unlike Sheydhaan Madoowe iyo Shaaticagaar oo laaluush yar ka doorbiday dadkooda iyo deeggaankooda. And about jaga la iska qaado. Wey ogyihiin, unlike them oo stooges u ah Sanaawi, he has the confidence of the majority xildhibaanada ku jiro baarlamaanka, not outright but dhankiisa ayee u badan yihiin. We had seen this version, this old scripted movie before, the old rift of markee Baydhabo iyo Jowhar kala joogeen. At that time he had the majority of xildhibaanada's confidence, at least those who were -- and still are -- daljacel iyo waxgarad, in Xamar with him. Another reason ay ugu qaadi karin is the day ay isku deyaan inay ka qaadaan dowladda ayaa burbureyso, for Shariifka asagana Xamar inta la joogto intee isku imaadaan ayee dowlada Geedi ku ridaayaan. Then the whole institution dowladda ah ayaa laughingstock noqoneyso, marka they can't even dare to if they desperately wanted to. Geedi himself shouldn't forget, without Shariifka, asaga dhan banaanka lasoo dhigi lahaa oo markii la damcay in laga qaado jagada a short few months ago. What do reer Waajid think siyaasadaan qaabka daran ka socdo dalka? Dadka badankooda intee u janjeeraan?

War shisheeyahaan intee kasoo foofeen? Soomaali jacburiskooda oo aan meel loo raaco jirin ayaa qaatir billaah ka joognay, hadana Soomaali in la kala gooye sankeena hortiisa ayee ku leeyihiin. Yaab iyo nus. Hadana Jabuuti oo Soomaali wax badan u dartay ayee rabaan inay naga dhaadhacsiyaan in Soomaali dhibeyso. Ash caleeg. Keep your unneeded opinions to yourself. Soomaali Soomaali ayaa leh, oo midnimo ku imaanaayo, regardless whatever an Amxaar, a Tigreey, a Cafar iyo an Oromo wants. Can you believe the whole forum ayeeba qabsadeen? Be respectful guests, do not meddle our internal affairs. We know what is best for us, dankis, but no dankis. Shuud. PS, We didn't even forget Soomaali Galbeed. Do not at all think that we've forgotten Soomaali Galbeed. No.

Hees kale oo daadis iyo calaacal isku jirto oo Iikar Jeesto ah. Aah, xaraarad. Ma hurdee har iyo habeen, adigaa i horjoogtidee...

Ooh, today I am on fire on youtube. Watch Qalanjo. [Qurux iyo bilic waa taasaa, dhaqankaaga ku leedahay. ] This one too. Qalanjo, nooloow waligaa. Rumour also went in early '80s, a West African president fell in love with Qalanjo when he saw her singing in Xamar. She laughed at his face. Oh, Soomaali maxee isku kalsooneyd waagaas. Still do, most.

Oh, I also found . The best shactiro ruwaayad scene ever made, no doubt. "Shib dheh." "Shib waa dhihi lahaa, afkeeyga aa daldalmooyo." --------------- "Qiyaanoole, qiyaanoole." "Xaasid xaasidiina xasada." --------------- "Tuug ma aragtay?" "Ma arkin dheh." "Laba nin ordeyso ma aragtay?" "Ma arkin dheh." "Dad alaab wato ma aragtay?" "Ma arkin dheh." "Hadaa i sheegtid waa ku marjihaa aas i dhahay." --------------- "Qof wax xadaayo maa kula egahay?" "Mushkaas aas ku jiraa." ---------------- "Qabso hee alaabtaada." "Lee...Sheekh C/qaadiroow..." "Allaheey ka alla." "Qiyaanooliyaasha dhan hala qabqabto."

Watch Awkoombe in his prime. [saado Cali too, oo xaajiyada waa isku dhaceysay. ] Magacaa? Indhauroon. Walaahi hadaaba u roontahay. Indhaheyga aaba u roontahayba. Markaa adiga ku arkayba indhaheyga iyo dhagahaaga qax ayba isku yiraahdeen. Gabartii dariskeena...Awcumar gadaashiis ma arkinoo, gabartii ku jirtay maahinoo? Muraayada, bashkalax. Shaxaarigaa taacun dheh, hab uu saas u rabaa.

Awjimcaaloow, he is referring "the death city" Galbeed media ominously dubbed. Baddacase, dhiig kacay ma jiro. You are condoning wax yaab leh, ee condemn gareey ama amanaan ama iska shib dheh. You don't have to excuse waxaas caaytamaayo iyo sidii habar camal u habaartamaayo. NB, I didn't know, though, Baydhabo was my "beloved city." I thought I was Xamar-bred, which I still have Xamar at heart.

Me and aqiyaarta kale who remember , baliis watch this clip. I vaguely remember how he looked like, but I think it is him on this clip from '80s, from Hobalada Iftin. Heesta oo maqal. Muxubo muuno beeshayee, moosinkeed waala moodayee...laba miiraa ley mudaa, waa leygu humaadsadaa Sulfa, Eebbaa cod ugu hibeeye. Another song that reminds waayo waayo kale. Gabar yar aan daris ahayn ayaa ugu wici jirnay ciyaalkeena xaafada. She passionately hated markii la dhaho "Labamiira."

Are you condoning what the guy is saying and cheerful response from the crowd? Adigaaba unfortunate kale noqday, reasoning waxaan aan loo fooshaxun. I don't know about you since waxaan kugu cusbeen, however indeed it is to me. I've never seen waxaan camal, oo naceyb iyo xaasidnimo Soomaali u qabo, saan la iguma soo korin, soori. Not even in private waxaan ku arkay, hadaaba private u maleysay wax qarsan ka socdaan, iskaba dhaaf public. --------------- Che, widaaygiis, I can't put the words on here wuxuu lee yahay. It is best left to watch it. Waaba la gartay wannabe rapper ha iska hadlee, but the sickening response from the crowd ayaaba aad iga yaabiye, especially some old dumar and other community leaders, including a soccer coach whose team participates a pan-Soomaali tournament every summer.

What a huge disappointment. Such a crowd, including old habro, cheering a hatred a message as this, about their own people and city, Xamar. I'm also disappointed to see Cabdijibaar Khaliiji, a respected newcomer singer at present on this vitriol-laden ruwaayad. Maxee galabsaday Xamar? I am even sure considerable percentage of the crowd were even born there. More sadder the event took place at my current residence city of Koronto.

I thought both Turki and Ceyroow were reclusive fellas, media-shy. Only did Turki emerge after he led the capture of Kismaayo, only to give two widely condemned interviews. He just went back to his old ways, waana miduu ku fiicnaa. His short two interviews demonstrated asaga iyo warhaabinta iskuma fiicna.

That whole region was and is called Waqooyi Bari, and short for Bari, not Bari the gobol. I don't use those temporaral, foreign-based "land"-ending names. Yes, since I don't use those "land"-ending names, that was another reason I asked why there never was an equivalent official name in Soomaali. There is no "p" letter in Soomaali nor "land" word, therefore I still stick with Waqooyi Galbeed and Waqooyi Bari, the respective known names for those neighbouring regions. Ee marka tartiibso.

You've a tendency to get emotional and passionate when it comes to and about the local politics of Bari. Bari nagama xigtid. We can praise, criticize and do waxaan rabno. It is dhul Soomaaliyeed. We have a right to criticize what we see are those leaders' shortcomings and downright absurdities ay lasoo shirtagaan. You have a right -- and always seem to utilize -- to criticize what you see other regions' leaders faults, but kuwa aad u maleysid inay kuu dhaw yihiin bustaha hoostiis ayaa ku qarinee. Waxaan waa illogic, unreasonable, Soviet-like and not really enforceable -- you don't have to always blindly support waxa ka dhaco Bari, especially not this preposterous, irrational decree.
