She does not understand that Somali is the only language of Somalia. But there are both complex and simplisitic formates of the language.

My uncle speaks 7 languages but he is still Somali, so what did your last sentence mean? You think Somalis do not know other languages?

Go back and review this thread from beginning to end. If what you say is true then you have just proven my point. I have agreed with you up and down from side to side that Somali is the main language. But just because you speak one language does not mean you can't speak another.

'It’s kind of like Boarder Spanish AKA Spanglish used here in America. Yes English and Spanish are two different languages however if you were to travel to certain parts of America that boarder along south America you will here spanglish spoken all the time.'

No part of America borders the South American continent to begin with. US is bordered by Mexico in the South and by Canada in the north.

And the spanish language spoken in Mexico varies alot from what you would hear if you traveled to Costa Rica, Guatemala, Chile, Colombia among other latin nations. There is a bit of variation within the spanish language itself. It predates to Spain where there was 'Castilian' and 'Catalan' spanish spoken in certain parts.

'There is only one language common to the homogeneous people of Somalia and that is AF-SOMAALI!'


Every language on the planet derived from somewhere. Where did the somali language come from? What influenced the evolution of it? Most have linkages to some other linguistic group so my guess is somali language wouldn't be any different. Can you tell me where it came?

That is very true. Listening to someone from Argentina speak Spanish is like listening to poetry imo.

Ok.

So like I stated in the first place I think this whole IQ and race stuff is just garbage. I believe the short comings of blacks have to do with poor choices, lack of unity and arrogance. Not anything genetic.

I am assuming that the study was primarily done with African americans.
Now since African americans are racially diverse, with large chunks of thier genes comming from Europeans and even native americans.

I very much doubt thier is a genetic cause.

Excellent point.

What’s interesting is that in many cases the test done with African Americans compared to whites didn’t show that big of a gap when fairly conducted. In fact most northern African Americans usually do better on these sorts of test than southern whites.

For the record there were a lot of test done in Africa too.

"It is a garbage topic. Let is sink to the bottom."

Why do you get offended. Unless what this scientific study has indicated is true in your case.

It would be worthwhile to delve deeper into why this study was done in the first place and to find out how correct the information recorded actually is.

^ The information is absolutely incorrect and unscientific, the topic should be dropped instead. There is no merit to this and plenty has been said. Whether they are scientists, historians or politicians, many white Americans of the past and present are bigotted and racist. Thomas Jefferson, the so called man of liberty once wrote about blacks:

"Comparing them by their faculties of memory, reason, and imagination, it appears to me, that in memory they are equal to the whites; in reason much inferior; As I think one could scarcely be found capable of tracing and comprehending the investigations of Euclid; and that in imagination they are dull, tasteless, and anomalous -- Thomas Jefferson, Notes on the State of Virginia"

This is what one of the founding whites of this country believed about blacks. I hate to generalize whites but their earlier generations were not outstanding citizens of the world for raping, pillaging, looting, and colonizing any other race who didn't put up a fight for its survival. No wonder still some among them like this so called professor yearns for the past bigotry of his ancestors.

There were many good whites in the early days of America when slavery was the driving force behind their Economy, Thomas Pane is one among many who wrote:

"...to go to nations with whom there is no war, who have no way provoked, without farther design of conquest, purely to catch inoffensive people, like wild beasts, for slaves, is an height of outrage against Humanity and Justice, that seems left by Heathen nations to be practiced by pretended Christian. How shameful are all attempts to colour and excuse it!" March 8, 1775 in the Pennsylvania Journal and the Weekly Advertiser -


Anyway, we shouldn't get worked up about this fool passing his wickedness as scientific evidence.

I think Soamlia is great (well could be great) too. But best in the world? I don't think it ever had that title.

[quote="razzberry"]Unclebin. Once again I agree with you and FAH 100%. Somali is the main language spoken and there are many different dialects. Same as in the US where the main language spoken is English but there are so many different dialects spoken here. Travel through he south especially around the Louisiana area and you will swear the people are not speaking English at all.


Im an American. I speak English Aber ich auch zu Spitzenzeiten deutsch.

You mean to tell me that there are no people native to Somali that can speak another language?[/quote]

Somali is the only language spoken. Again, Alluring is right. There is no comparison to the U.S. The U.S in and of itself is a mongrel bastard, who's TRUE languages of origin are Native tongues and Spanish. Bastardized Yank english was imported, whereas Af Somali is homogenous. Capisc?

'Somali is the only language spoken.'

That has already proven as a false statement. The previous poster pointed out that dialects are also spoken that differ somewhat from regular somali and also that Arabic is spoken there.


'There is no comparison to the U.S. The U.S in and of itself is a mongrel bastard, who's TRUE languages of origin are Native tongues and Spanish. Bastardized Yank english was imported, whereas Af Somali is homogenous. Capisc?'

Spanish was NEVER the native language of the US. It is adopted like any other european language spoken in the US. The native languages spoken in America in pre-Columbus days are too numerous to even mention. And in reference to the comments made about US being a 'mongrel bastard' the same can be said of Canada and a few other nations.

Somali language most definitely has some type of liguistic similarities with some other group or groups of languages that most of you don't even know yourselves.
