Xaaji Xunjuf Posted March 30, 2012 If Somalis import Arabic words pronounce them in the correct way if you use the Q it will have a whole different meaning. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
burahadeer Posted March 30, 2012 ye but Q is only the correct somali.Most of the arabic words you can't start with Q.some you can do,like: Khamro=Qamro Khususi=Qusuusi Kharash=Qarash Kasaaro=Qasaaro Khatar=Qatar Khalad=Qalad etc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Naxar Nugaaleed Posted March 30, 2012 Looool I wonder if there are somali words that end with land too Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
burahadeer Posted March 30, 2012 somali started north & went south for your information. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Naxar Nugaaleed Posted March 30, 2012 there is this linguistic theory that suggest that the origin of any language is closest to the area inhibited by the largest group of speakers. Clearly that would put the origin of af-Somali deep in the south of those heavily populated centers in the south... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
