Ibtisam Posted February 12, 2009 Ok okay, lets see. Beri hoore Waaxa jirtaey gaabad qurux badab, bislaatey as nuune would say. Waax qaabay nin xoolo baadan leeh and iinan bay u lahaayd ninka. One day, ninkii wuu iska tegey and naag kaley ayuu guursaaday, then xoolihiis gaabadi minweytahad waa laa qiibsad and the new one baa loo soocay, guuri weyen naag tii cuusbade waa looaga dhisey. Markay aragety meesha waaxa kaa daacey, the new house, half of her xool gone, habeenkii ayey intay innakedi xambaaratey kaa daaqajisey. Ninki was of course with the new wife and waax baa muu ogen till subaxdii. By then she was long gone and waa laga quustey gabadi iyo iinanki. In her misery and anger, gabadi weye luuntey, reerohoodi meeshi uguu tambaysay bey garanweys. She walked for days and nights with son till ii gaadhay dooxadii nogaal. Meeshasu waaxa ahadi meel lago baqo oo lagu yaaqaano qor iis marais [JB tell em what that is ] After a while, just before dark, waxey aragtay siigo soo kaacasey iyo waax soo ordaya at great speed. Then she feared for her son, so cagaha aya waax ka dayday, babababac juuf style. Markaasuu qoor iis maraiskiin iska tab dhigey. The gabad iyo iinakedo, they were buurranayeen, so qori iis maraiski hungry baa kaa soo dacey. So he intensified his chase. Iyaad na naflaacaari by this time so tab yar mai shidanyni, sii laa iisu baacsanye baa lug soo daac Boholaha Xargaga. Gabaadi markiiay aragtey inaanay bohosha diinac uga laaban kaarin without losing ground, said bisinka and weye kala dul booday, son and all. The qori iis maariis wuu ka dul boodii kaarii wayeh, so he said with ciil iyo caado: Bal naag taa baadheda dayaa bal bowdayo caadanata daya bal buluq-baluq deeda daya bal inanaki sidato daya hoh iyo Boholaha Xargaga qof xiimayeh ayah xidhaan qof duulayah ayah dabraan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-Serenity- Posted February 12, 2009 Ibtisam, sweety, you have improved, however I think you would benefit from a few Somali classes at SOAS if you're serious. There is nothing wrong with your speaking, its just a matter of correcting a few too many double letters and tenses p.s. I find reading Somali a bit long and torturous to begin with, so its even more tiring when I've to think twice about the meaning. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Juxa Posted February 12, 2009 Ibti, it is great story, i heard it from my ayeeyo but the version i heard was: cakuye boholaha xargaga nin xiimahayey xidhaan nin duulahayay dabraan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ibtisam Posted February 12, 2009 ^^^It might well be Juxa, I'm having hard time remembering the wording iyo details. Sorry, I should've written them when I was a little younger, just clenching on straws haada. Serenity, I will inshallah look into few weekends at SOAS, you might want to come with me, you can improve on your speaking iyo reading. Then you won't get tired reading it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kool_Kat Posted February 12, 2009 Ibts, the best advice I can give you is to refrain from 'aa' 'ee' 'ii' 'oo' 'uu', or Shaqal Dheerka dhan ka dheeroow...That's what give me a light headache when I read your afSoomaali... Specially when reading some words (ie. dad = people; daad = flood)... Overall, you're doing a great job, unlike the many here oo af koodii hooyo ka faana...Keep it up! :cool: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
