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

Sxb Snow is actually not new me, im acually from sweden were the Snow was invented but its a long story and i wont say anything, anyway are you in London as well?

I don't own no fockin shovel.
I got a burush iyo mafeeq to clear my drive way.

Liqaaye what happened, don't tell me you were making a snowman 5 in the morning.

a majarafad would be more effective than a mafiiq

majarafad...mafeeq please tell me thats not Somali

This is a majarafad



This is what's called a mafiiq back home



but Cali Gaab is probably talking about this

No this is what i call a burush iyo mafiiq and is what i use to clear my drive way of snow

@ the dustpan...Why don't grab a duster while you're at it too...by the way, mafiiq= broom and burush = brush

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

Bare in mind that with my hight it isn't too difficult to use that for clearing 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!

lol @ AliG

jaqaf is a dustpan
