Diamante Posted August 29, 2004 asalaamu caleykum, sitting bored at home, i was sniffing through the pages of my dusty english-somali dictionary. So i got this new idea, how about we make our own SOL dictionary. You can post a somali word you have just found the meaning to, or if you heard a phrase of which you'd like to know the meaning. I'll start: xod xodasho- flirt (used to hear this word for like always, but i thought it meant diggin something up ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Xarago Posted August 29, 2004 Xarago = dressing smartly, chic.., stylish dhadhan = dumb Maandhow = son..eg: refering to a young boy (no necessarily your son). However it is rude to use it against an elder Qoron = ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
