I am not a linguist so it is better not to make myself look like an expert, having said that, Fircoon is a title and if i recall it right it means the big house.

As for languages being borrowed from others, untill recently i thought cake in somali means dolce..little i know it was Italian.

AbdiWahab,

Waa runbtaa Farax is pure Somali name. Laakiin qaarbaa Arabic u haysta....

I think Farax and Pharaoh are the same thing. You know how Somalis love power and everything associates with it.
Walaalo, even though I lived the majority of my life outside Somalia but 95% of the Somalis i have met have arabic names. And I don't really care if you agree with me or not, believe what you want to believe in :up: But just for your fyi, Farah فرح means happiness and name for females is quite common and some people use it as a meaning of the word wedding.
Somalis use it as فارح denoting it as a male name, in additions some of the North africans and Pakis use it. Also in some villages of Egypt, they use فرحانه for females. Whether the name is Faraah, Farah, Farhana...it came from the word root of Farah aka فرح ie happiness .


Anyway,

Dhaga Bacayl sayax ka boode halkuu u nooday bal yaa garanaaya. i understand the underlined but what does the first three words mean :mrgreen:

Of course Farax means farxad and it's a female name too but we’re talking about FAARAX, say it out loud not farax, FAARAX. They’re totally two different names.

There are male names such as Farxiye or Farxaan that have similar meaning as Farax. FAARAX is totally different animal. I’m NOT trying to convince you anything saaxiib just stating the fact.

BTW, Dhaga Bacayl is my name (no need to find out the meaning) and Sayax means wetness. In another words Mr. Dhaga Bacayl does NOT like to step on wet pavements. Roll out the red carpet instead.
