Assalamu Alaikum


You have so say a word that is also part of the arabic language, this way we can learn arabic inshAllah ta'ala. You have to also give the definition of the word for those who are not familiar!

P.s one word per person, even though it is tempting!

I'll start:

Somali: Caadi
Arabic: 3aadi
English: Okay

Err Yes but in a certain conext, you would say Ana in a sentence like this:

Ma ana ku dhilee? or is it ma aniga ku dhilee, ok im confused now.

Or am I getting confused with Arabic and Somali, oh well I was brought up speaking both languages anyways so don't blame me :?
