[QueenofKings]

Surely dhahay is the more common word. But when I do use the other I would say yiri.

 

[Abu Hesi]

waxaan ku yidhi

You mean waxaan ku idhi. Waxaan ku yidhi is wrong.

 

[Abu Hesi]

It's just accent, waqooyi vs koonfur.

 

[Guardafui]

 

[Mercury]

You mean waxaan ku idhi. Waxaan ku yidhi is wrong.

Waxa aan= I
Yidhi= He said
Idhi= I said

"Waxaan yidhi"= I, he said

I said - waxaan dhahay

osiga woxo yiri (excuse my spelling) - he said

"Odhaah" and "Dheh" are basically the same words.
=say, saying, etc.


Odhaah=oo dheh, dhihid= saying, say etc.


DHEH:
Dhahayaa(I or he) present
Dhahay(I or he) past

Dhahaysaa(she) present
Dhahday(she) past

ODHAAH:
Odhanayaa(I or he) present
Yi+odhaahday=Yidhaayday(he) = Yidhi for short. Past
And if you take out the "y", it becomes
I said= Idhaahday= Idhi, for short.

Odhanaysaa(she) present
Ti+odhaahday=Tidhaahday(she) = Tidhi for short. Past

If the root word is dheh, then the "correct" way to say/spell it, is with a dh not r. After all, it's dhihid not rihid, imo.

Wax aan/uu/ay ku idhi/yidhi/tidhi.

Ku and kuu make big differences.

For example:
"Waxaan ku idhi sidan samee"= (I'm telling you) do it this way.
"Waxaan kuu idhi sidan samee.."= I told you to do it this way because..
