Prediction in af Somali and other Somali Vocabulary Through Music Thread

Post by BVSNet »

So I thought a nice way to learn af Somali is through music

Marka how it goes:

You post a new word you learnt via a song and you write the line in the song (i.e. how the word was used) and you translate it loosely if possible. Also post the song if you can


But just one song/word per post, don't want this to feel like school

Hundurmeedi oworaad waal yaable haaytey- The dream i had last night was something strange
Hufeyto kooyte haansho iing sheentey- A bird came to me and gave me a letter saying
Huburoowdii geeraad harti la siiye, hadagii lee dhimengmaa habartiisa nagateey- The girl from yesterday was given a man and is about to tie the not.

It's - anilee bakaarada kugeynkara


Bukeynkara means make something sick

Kugeynkara means to take


So he's saying I am the only one who can take you to your house i.e. take you home i.e. :shaq: without actually saying it
