waad salaamantihiin dahamantii!
the issue of your own people not being able 2 speak their mother tongue is something we need to address.
this may come as a shock to some people,but most of the young somali people can't speak somali properly.so how do u encourage the young to speak their own language?
speak more somli at home?
don't be ashamed 2 learn somali?
soo please put all your ideas forward.
peace.
