Being Somali means ... Having the ability to insist that you know things when, in reality, you know jack xaliimo

[wind talker]

Definitely Hibo and Shaqsii had excellent lists. The people with the geographic meaning for being Somalis must've missed the question.

 

Anyways, being a Somali to me is synonomous with being a refugee. I don't think anyone mentioned that, yet..

[Juxa]

shaqsii, hibo, nice lists,,,,,,

jamaal,,,,,,,i guess u cannt help it,,,been somali, xalimo is in yr thoughts 24/7

 

canjeero for quraac

soor for qado

malawax for casiriyo

falfaliir for casho.

 

bei somali, obeying parents no matther what, holding into the tradion, having a laugh, pride (ma ogi meeshan ka keenay taas)

 

great to be a somali

[rudy-Diiriye]

[Miriam1]

Rudy wallahi ur jokes

What is being somali,

Its seeing others deny the gift of their culture

While you look on helpless, yearing for a kinhood never to exist.

Yet sensing a revolution on the horizon..

Its a beauty of the inner soul and the external features

It is uniquness in every form

Its an unbeatable pride

Viva le somalinimo

[Reality Check]

I don't really know what it means...

 

All I know is..When I get loud and abnoxious in Somali populated places..I can get away with it.

[Manaal]

Being somali means family value, respect for parents and not having to pay for hotels when u travel from one place to another.

Being Somali for me means helping your fellow Somali irrespective of wether you know them or not.

 

It is because of characteristics like that i am so grateful to Allah for making me Somali- not that i believe we are better than others- I’m just real glad to be Somali

[MiSs_LeXuS]

Being Somali means yelling constantly, particulay everywhere

 

Being Somali means we are at eachothers throats 24/7

 

Being Somali means everyone Somali that comes your way is your abti and habaryar.
