Senegal adopting arabic as official Language

[GeeljireGenius]

When will Somalia adopt Arabic as its first language? If Senegal can do it, so can Somalia.

 

[wonyluvr]

Arabic is an official language

 

[GeeljireGenius]

Arabic is an official language

We do not give Arabic the respect it deserves. It should be taught from elementary school up to university, and we should have Arabic versions of universal TV and other Somali news channels. Additionally, it's not ideal for Somalia to be part of the Arab League while the majority of the population can't speak Arabic.

 

[Keep it a boqol]

lmao these niggas and their ethnic narcissism. Tell me why would someone from west africa adopt a language spoken on the other side of the continent

 

[𐒁𐒚𐒒𐒂𐒘𐒂𐒗 𐒎𐒚𐒗𐒗𐒒]

Why not Wolof as their first language and Arabic, second??

I hope that's the news, and not that Arabic is the official language, above their own. This is how people lose pride in themselves. From Je Suis français to Ana Arab!

If Allah SWT wanted us all to be Arabs and speak Arabic, it would have happened already. Stand up Africans, oo damiir yeesha.

If they really adopt Arabic as the first language, give it a few decades, and you will see Senegalese claim descent from Arabia, sida dad aan ogahay.

Why do they believe Africa is one country and one people?

 

[Riftvalley]

Arabic was the written lingua franca across West Africa and Sahel. They also wrote in Ajami scripts. Good move by Senegal

If your language is Arabic and your culture is also Arab, then you are an Arab; it's as simple as that.

Now, let's look at Somalis:

- Speaks Arabic
- Camel herders
- Nomads

Walaale,

Somalis are older than Arabs, and camels were first domesticated in Africa.

Religion= Islam
Ethnicity = Soomaali.
Language= Af-Soomaali.

Arabic should be a SECOND language.

Clan (family) = Majeerteen

Majeerteen that's a proper arab clan masha Allah huuno.

Somalia two official languages are Somali and Arabic.

That's in name only we need to show it too.

Probably because other tribes will oppose it and call it Wolof supremacy and control of Senegal.

People will get radicalised and start to hate islam, thinking islam is taking away their identity, they should make Arabic their third language after Wollof,English

Additionally, it's not ideal for Somalia to be part of the Arab League while the majority of the population can't speak Arabic.

It already is taught from elementary to university

 

[SWorld]

This is a regressive step.
They should promote their own language and unofficially add English for international trade.
In Somalia we need to remove Arabic and only promote Somali but unofficially also use English.
