Cambuulo iyo bun Posted April 16, 2013 nothing personal safferz but I find amaharic or any of the etiopian languages barbaric and not worth learning especially by one born of the proud somali race. disgusting language and people. if a meteor wiped them out i'll say alhamdulilah.

Wadani Posted April 16, 2013 Get used to this now because public speaking will become your bread and butter as an academic. Just make sure u take deep breaths as u walk up there and before u start speaking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Public speaking isn't really the issue, it's the fact it's a lame acting performance (foreign language doesn't help either). It even embarrassed me back in elementary and middle school when I was forced to do it then lol.

I think it's a wonderful language and an important one in the Horn. And learning it is the only way to find out what they say and write about us.

Cambuulo iyo bun Posted April 16, 2013 @Safferz: it has 0 importance in the horn (sawahili is king) and it's not wonderful but barbaric. it's razor to the ears and anyone who studies it is a race-traitor IMO. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps you could have won us the ******* war lool so many Somalis speak Amharic! But nah I am just dying to read the material in Ethiopia's state archives, and I still have a way to go before I reach that level of competence in Amharic. I know there are several thousand documents about Somalia's nationalist movement in the security archives in Harar alone, because they were so concerned about it.

That's quite simplistic. Also noting the irony of communicating that in the English language. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
