Hi everyone,

Just a quick question: could someone please tell me how to say "Happy Birthday" in Somali? I've looked all over the internet for a translation, but haven't been able to find one. The person's birthday is tomorrow, and it would be great for me to be able to great them in this way. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!

you say .waar waa malinte dhalashadade hoo hadiyadn.

Dhalasho= birth
Sanadguur= commemoration of a particular event /date
Hambalyo = congratulation
So the best I can come up with is
Hambalyo iyoo sanadguur wacan

Sanad Geeri Wacan.
