Girls, what turns u off when it comes to a somali brother?

[Aaliyyah]

^Xaasha huuno. Afkeyga waligey ma saarin alaabtaas, aqoonta iyo khibradda wey kala duwan yihiin sidaad la socotaba. Dhinaca "harming yourself", there are different takes on that, mid aan aqaano oo la yidhaahdo Abdi would strongly disagree with you. He would tell you that it is his balwad that keeps him going day in and day out laakiin I see whacha saying.

hada shekada ii badala odayaalyahow kusan...

 

iska caba waxa cabasiin..Not my business!..uunsina beela..uunsi kamaad hadleeene lol

[The Zack]

^I still standby what I said, anigu waligey uma dhawaan laakiin dadka qaar wey u fiican tahay iney u dhawaadaan. LOL@caba waxaad cabeysiin. Fooxa waa la ruugaa walal lama cabbo, qiiqna wuu leeyahay.

[Aaliyyah]

foox?? isnt that uunsi thing?? are you really telling me some ppl eat it? for what reason?

[Showqi]

Deal Aaliyyah. Marba haduu Dabqaadkii kaa hoos baxay maanta. Waa in aan Laascaanood ku dirnaa. Si aad u soo kala baratid wixii ay Awoowayaasheen iyo Ayeeyoyinkeen ku dhaqmi jireen.

[Che -Guevara]

Zack-markuu xanjada yahey maa sheegey?

[The Zack]

Che Haaheey.

 

Aaliyah, uunsi ma aha walal, fooxu waa another smoke lol. Consider taking Showqi's advice lol.

[Aaliyyah]

lol@ marku xanjada yahay! ..so u telling me u ppl eat uunsi??...I'm lost..nor do I wanna know!...alle ha ni naxariisto lol

 

Showqi dhaqanka intii fiican i dnt mind in aan barto..waxa la ruugayo ee la sheegayo laakin iga qaleeya!..

[Aaliyyah]

lol mar waxa tidhi balwad ma taabto hadana waxa tidhi ileen gabadhu ma oga in aan unsi ka hadlayo..hadana foox wax la dhoho qortay hadana wa ku waydiiyey ma uunsi baa waxa tidhi maya uunsi ma aha wa wax kale oo la smoke gareeyo lol..meshan wa ku wareeray..shawqina waan adeecay his advice bt i dnt want to learn any of this..just the good of our dhaqan..

[Che -Guevara]

^Not uunsi..We are talking about when you obtain the foox from trees, it's like gum and could be chewed.

[The Zack]

LOOOOL@ Aaliyah... the best way to really learn the Somali dhaqan is to visit the motherland. You will see the uunsi smoking, luubaan chewing, fooxis, shiidaw and many more things in person. It is actually cool to watch people do it.

[Aaliyyah]

zack wrote "fooxu waa another smoke lol"

Zack lol alright ppl i dnt know how we got from the discussion of balwad to advicing me to learn my culture lol...aaliyah in aan ahay miya lala socon...dhaqankiiba waan dhameeyey almost 3/4..hahha

ka daro dibi dhal.

 

too many teachers and not enough students or was it too many chiefs and not enough Indians!

 

maydi (frankincense)

Arabic gum - that is the one you chew

 

Uunsi is generic term for burning the dam thing. but the Somalis have different names for different varieties of frankincense e.g. beeyo, foox, maydi etc.

 

i have go to go now and be the taakuleeye
