Fayrouz, you use it like this:

 

Abaayo waa ku tuuga ee taleefan lambarkaaga igu dhaji nooh.

 

Or,

 

Abaayo waa ku tuuga ee saaxibadaa igu qabo nooh?

Sounds fishy to me

 

You know who you remind me Castro....this Guy

 

[sheherazade]

what's the word for 'obvious'.

[Baluug]

I thought you were asking how to say "quilt", not "guilt".

Muuqdaa?

[sheherazade]

that hints more at visibility than obviousness.

 

Or am I am danbi of pedantry(what's the word for that??).

[Faheema.]

Obvious = iska cad.....Way cadahay inuu garaneyn

[Yoonis_Cadue]

Another simple mistake of yours Castro, you know you should stick to your language namely spanish it would be better for you or take russian classes up, I can teach you if you want me too. It's only $5 per minute.

 

Obvious means in soomaali although there isn't a direct translation however you could say that obvious means in soomaali "wax qeexan oo sahlan ama iska cad".

[sheherazade]

Cad is not an exclusive word.

 

Now apologise to Castro for hijacking his topic. LoL.

 

Danbi badana Somaalidu.

[Qandalawi]

^ Yes more into visibility and clearness

 

but I think you could say 'Cad', which is used for something white, and obvious on different perspective.

Waxa kalee iska cad inaan dagaal hoolman kugu qaadayo.

[xiinfaniin]

GUILTY implies responsibility for or consciousness of crime, sin, or, at the least, grave error or misdoing.

 

Its antonym is innocent. And so I think, danbi, gardarro and eed (though this means culpable than guilty).

 

Mee raggeedii?

[Castro]

^ That's true. But the 'guilt' I'm thinking of is something like:

 

- I feel guilty I didn't go to the gym today (this year, decade....)

 

- I feel guilty for eating this ice cream.

 

You know what I mean? Nothing to do with actual bad behavior but just a sense of uneasiness. Discomfort.

 

- I feel guilty not saying hi to her when I saw her.

 

That type of guilt.

[Faheema.]

LoL Castro xaal qaado…. I didn’t mean to hijack your thread... although both times it was Shehe that put the key in the ignition

[Yoonis_Cadue]

you won't find a single word.

 

But may I suggest certain words.

 

e.g. I feel guilty not saying hi to Foxy. "Waan ka "xumahay" in aanan salaamin Foxy ama Waan ka xumahay in aanan ku oran/ku dhihin foxy "Hi"!

[Castro]

^ I don't care who I'm with, I'm never walking past Foxy without saying hi.
