Somali language sound to foreigners

[MR.𐒈𐒝𐒑𐒛𐒐𐒘]

Have you ever spoke Somali infront of non Somalis and what language did they think you was speaking or what did Somali sound to them in general.

The battle between @MR.𐒈𐒝𐒑𐒛𐒐𐒘 and @Scipio Africanus is always so funny to see they basically opposites of each other.

Everyone assumes I am speaking Arabic when talking in Somali. It is that Afro Asiatic similarity.

Walaalo, how can Somali and Arabic sound the same or similar as both language sound different and are of two different branches within the afro asiatic family tree.

You act like everyone Is an expert in languages. Remember we have a lot of similar sounding phonetics generally not found in other language groups. Arabic is also well known, whereas most assume that we speak Arabic or Swahili for some reason.

Most people I have met have said that it sounds like Arabic but overuse of ع. They say we use too much ع

 

[bohom]

Everyone says it sounds like a fast version of Arabic.

Its embrassing everybody knows Turks speak Turkish and Persians speak Persian and why would anybody mistake Somali for Arabic while Somali don't even speak neither Arabic or Swahili
