The somali language is becoming a mess with all the borrowed words flying around.
Some are obvious like albaab which is iriid but others not so much.
What's the *pure somali equivalent for these words?
Book (not buug)
Chair (not kursi)
Table
Closet
Towel
But (not laakiin)
Pencil
Pen
Switch the loan for the Somali?
