sudanes Posted May 13, 2005 do the arabs look sudanes as arabs or black african? sudanes arabs have similar features to somalis yet are arabs. so my question is do arabs look sudanes as arabs or its it the sudanes claim something they are not. there is this sudanes guy who told me that somalis are not arabs because they dont speak arabic,but a assumed soamlis who speak arabic as arabs..that really confussed me. i want people with knowledge to give me some answers..i necer though i will be confussed who iam but the fact is i ma not the only person with this identity crisis. how come there is no dark arabs in arab media if there is black arabs!!!!!.

Good-Credit Posted May 13, 2005 the sudanese ppl's native language is Arabic, where as us somalis native language is Somali. and if you think Somali's are Arabs just because they look like the Arab Sudanese, then you might as well consider Eritrians and Etheopians to be Arabs since they have the same looks! btw.. are you a real Zool??

Myself I wasn’t sure about my answer (it was my friend’s suggestion) but nevertheless zool when written in English sounds like zoolu which is a barbaric African tribe, hence it can be understood as some one from an uncivilised background or tribe.

-Serenity- Posted May 14, 2005 Dont despair Credit, I'm here. "Zool" or "ya zool" is the arabic version of nigger. Its what light skinned arabs call dark skinned ones. I dont know where the term originated or how it came to have that meaning... but when I lived in carabta, it was outright racist to refer to some1 so. p.s. "zool" as a term just means "hey u" or "hey guy"... but its assumed that racist meaning now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haddad Posted May 15, 2005 Originally posted by ADNAAN: zool when written in English sounds like zoolu which is a barbaric African tribe The Zulus weren't barbaric. If anything, they were one of the bravest African tribes. I don't know where you got the idea they were barbaric. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How about adding "waryaa" to your Dictionary of racist terms, it seems you know Carabta better than any1 else!!! P.S. : btw, I would love to read your Biography next year, can't wait to know about your life in Carabta. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
