Men I need your help. Come in please and fill me in.

[Areesa]

So I've a friend who likes this guy, as a typical female she doesn't want to make the first move. She thinks he likes her but whenever he sees her, he calls her walal. So what does it mean when a guy calls a female walal?

[Sagaashan]

he is probably conservative and doesn't know flashy terms like 'abaayo, suuban, macaanto, qalanjo, atariisho' walaalo its a term of endearment, closeness and association. its also used in the central and nothern parts of Somalia.

[IRONm@N]

he is just being formal.
what do you expect to call her?
"abaayo"? same as walaal but more intimate
"macaanto"? very informal
"naayaa"? very rude
"huuno" very northern
"gacaliso" very intimate

[Areesa]

So is he flirting with her? or he is just suggesting that she is like a sister to him?

[Areesa]

"huuno" very northern

He calls other chicks hunno even me. But when he is talking to her, he calls her walalo. I don't get it.

[Sagaashan]

So is he flirting with her? or he is just suggesting that she is like a sister to him?

Neither. His GPS is still searching and hasn't located what 'name' he should call her. be patient.

[Areesa]

Sagashan she is driving me crazy, always talking about him and she doesn't have the guts to talk to him. And when she gets the chance, she says hi and runs away.

[Lillaahiya]

We can't call members of the opposite sex walaal/walaalo anymore? When did the term become suggestive?

You need to stop gassing your friend.

[Sagaashan]

Since you are friends with both, why don't you carry the torch and become the bearer of good news. Break it to the brother in some form or fashion. If he is not interested, its better for your friend to hear it from you than him.

[Areesa]

Lillahiya- I am not gassing her.
AgentofChaos- Should my friend go up to him and tell him how she feels?
Sagaashan- I can't do that, then she will think I am cock-blocking her.

[greenday]

Areesa, do it for her mise its you

[Areesa]

Areesa, do it for her mise its you

Macanto I can't do that, she is the jealous type, what if I go up to him and tell him everything, he says he's not interested then when I break the news to her, she will think I plot it. And no wallahi it's not me.

[ElfRuler]

LOL! That is not it brother. When women chases a man they (Women) have to constantly be on their feet. It's a life-sentence for the woman.
