Assuming a Londoner actually owns a shovel

It seems like it does not snow often in England... Now I'm not surprised it took poor Cali Gab 20 minutes to clear it. He was probably scraping it off with his fingernails

Loooool your Somali is weird we call it xaaqin (granted it sounds disgusting)
BTW I didn't know there was a Somali word for spade...always called it jembe

But now I know
What I wouldn't give to see someone using a jaqaf to clear snow

yeah, you're right...xaaqin sounds gross, makes you think of phlegm but I guess it comes from xaaq "to sweep"... I call jembe a type of drum and what's a jaqaf?

I guess the somali spoken in a particular region does sounds funny to a person from a different region

@ Cali...Truth!
