Kambuli got it Right

Yes..Waa Xaar walaal, qaarna waxay yidhaahdaan "Doorshaan"

Haaa lax is an ewe!

What does this line of a hees hawleed mean:

Goolku waa seedo

All of those words are used for a Scorpion...and Liqaaye, that bug is a 'doorshaan'.

Yeah Kambuli got it right, she even knew what it was called in Af-koonfured i never heard of Doorshaan before, but i guess its a same thing...

Yeah its a dung beetle, never heard of xaar waalwaal before

If abeeso is a short fat snake...then what is abeeso lugaley? Is it just another word for 'Yaasin ma sugto'?

Abeeso is some sort of snake!

but Mas Lugaley made me laugh its must be the one we Call (Mas-cagaley)

That isn't xaar walaal LiQaaye. Xaar walwaal is Dung Beetle isn't it, its a little different than that it looks like this



Hangaraale = Daboqalooc = Scorpion
Hangaraarac = Millipede,,Skippa
Cinjir is elastic
Xinjir is blood clot
Injir is Lice
Wan = Ram,, Gedo Girl
Lax is Basra.
Mas Lugaley and Cagaley, same thing.

That would be whale and eagle

Yaa yaqaan dadkii hore waxey u aqoon jiriin qas hanti ah

Yes brother Gats, a centipede or millipede would give that proverb some sense.

2Toe, nibiri is a whale and gorgor is an eagle

your right about nibiri it's a whale. Guys isn't gorgor a vulture I thought i saw something like that and was told it's a gorgor.

i swear eagle is galayd

I could be wrong but I think a vulture is called "yili"...there's also one smaller bird called "gogori" which is like a wild hen or something
