Getting Tired of being asked, “Somali miyaad tahay”

[Yankee]

lmfao it has its use and it's nice For the most part is just a simple nod of acknowledgment or sometimes a conversation depending on the situation

So no one looks at you funny? And you know Somalis bro, they stare like a mothafucka! I speak Af Somali, and they reply back in English. It takes a few seconds for them to register that I’m actually speaking SOMALI!

You sound just like the old guys at the local restaurants I visit, after having a discussion with them in Af Somali they usually end the conversation with, “Haye, qolomaa tahay”

I don't do that. If I need to know anyone's clan, I ask my hooyo or someone who knows them that I can trust. So what's your clan?

I look so Somali, even Romani Gypsies know I'm one. People have even clocked when at a stop light with my helmet on, my eyes give me away kkkk

I’ve seen one of your videos bro you’re look hella Somali!

Interestingly enough, the lightest skin Somalis I know are a Marexaan and a Hawadle and a Elaay. But they clearly looked Somali due to their big lips that can't close and big foreheads.

I’m guessing Hawaadle are incorporated Hawiyes? Genetically they are distant but politically they are HAG.

Has nothing to do with that. Somalis are darkest the closest they are to the coast. It's a region thing. The landlocked clans are the lightest.

That’s quite interesting I would’ve never guessed that.

They are all 99-100% Somali except for the few who mixed with cad cads or Bantus.

Has anyone noticed when people claim to not look Somali, its always never "Bantu"-like but Arab or cadcad or something or maybe Hindi?

I have been confused for Sri Lankan Masha Allah
