-Lily- Posted September 24, 2008 I think Nuune means hetchhog, which in somali has a very funny name I won't repeat,I suspect is one of the many names made up by my family. Edit: so Kuley etc. is an actual name for it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-Lily- Posted September 24, 2008 In most cases people are proud that their language is so rich that it has many different names for things...would be nice if this concept extended to the Somali language. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
