Ok so I think I've found some mistakes. Perhaps this is from a different dialect?________________

 

 

I am fine - Feylaha as appose to faylena (which is plural)

 

 

Welcome - Ha dhowaaw as appose to Sa dhawoow

Maxaa jiro ereyadaan special meaning mee kuu leeyihiina?

 

Koley 'dabrid' waxaa ka wadid ma fahmin. Kuwa kalena koley bisqin haddaa ka wadid 'shuunka,' Afmaaygana shuun lagu dhahaa. Dhoocil? Ma hubi wax lagu dhaho, inkastoo u maleeyo the closest word yahay foodleey. Dhilo waa la dhihi karaa in Afmaay, as well. About mindhicir? Hmm... ma hubi, oo ma xasuusti erey jiro. Afmaaygeyga heer sare ma gaarin, oo salna ma dhigan, oo anaaba eber ah.
