The reason I asked was that your word for your number ten in the Somali language translates to "complete"
Is the word for nose in your language "uff"

Re: Somalis And Oromo's ?
Why do Xabashis look down on Oromos, and Why are Oromos so loyal to Amharics? A few hundred Ogadeeni bravehearts with heart give the Wooyane and Meles sleeples nights, while Oromos comb the injir hair of Amharic and Tigray filth
