I'm looking for the Somali word for 'Soybean'. Does it grow in Somalia?

Thanks in advance.

Yummy, I can't see it clearly from your first picture but the beans in the second pic is actually what we call falfaliir. Aren't they the same?

Deeqa walaal the top ones have a single black dot in them, whereas the 2nd image looks like rounder & smaller black eyed peas?
What do you reckon?

Vivacious · Post by **Vivacious** » Fri Apr 08, 2016 5:07 pm

You are right. They almost look the same.

The joy I felt when Vivacious said 'Falfaliir' :lawd:

but she chickened out.

Yummy do you have a Somali word, a Koonfuri one preferably.
