Are there any reasons why Girls dislike the the word naaya

[Hales]

I always thought it was Synynomous with the word "waryaa" and its perfectly ok to call guys that.

[Archdemos]

it has negative connotations attached to it. Just seems rude, something you would say when displeased with a woman i guess. whereas warya can be a term of endearment.

aano meel iska maraya ayaa gabadh soomaali ah iyo mid cadaan ah iga hor yimaadeen - markey ila sinaayeen aya tii cadaan ka ahayd igu tidhi:

Waryaa! - markasaan waxaan ku idhi: "Yes Naaya?", tii soomaaliga ahayd baa soo booday - oo tii cadaan ka ahayd ku tidhi "OMG - he called you bij".

 

Lost in translation huh? - i think not. but naaya is used as term of scolding where as waryaa is from the wadnaha

 

p.s. why you ask - ma lagugu dharbaaxay?

I just remembered a Dugsi teacher used to call everyone regardless of gender Waryaa. And then he flopped one day and he called a girl Naaya; thats when things went bad for both. Some girls apparently prefer to get beaten then be called naaya, just shows how much they like that word.

Because of its usage in a pejorative context, I'm sure.

what about naag, it is also rude, i think , polite words for women is Islaan, haweeney, gabar.

but if you say naa xaliimo is ok lool,

[Ducaysane]

How about Bilcaan.

I remembered Naag is also distasteful, Queen Arrawello probably hijacked these words. Islaan or Islaamod are meant for Dumars or guests out of respects but you wont use it in school or college.

Its not supposedto be pejorative, whoever invented the word im sure meant it be used in the same context as that of Waryaa; its the equivalent and synymous with that word.

I mean i wonder what happened in the past that made these word become distatefull to woman. I mean its not like youll object to being called nin or waryaa.

Heck i even remember a girl objecting to the usage of the word gabar.lol.

[Hales]

Ok how about

 

Old lady, senior, older female relative = dumar

 

Younger woman or girls = Halimo or Gabar

I think the word sounds very sexy if it is only used by couples in the bedroom but outside world i find it to be very suggestive.

[Chocolate and Honey]

I agree that it has sexual connotations.My cousin once beat a boy silly in a school bus yelling "ma adaa in naageeysatay" when he suggestively called her Naayaa.
