Is there any proof for that? Seems very similar to the Amhara word for it. I suspect that is where it actually came from unfortunately. Especially given the fact that they are farmers who have always had access to the ingredients (I believe they make theirs with teff?) whereas Somalis are nomads known primarily for meat and milk.

Sabaayad is different though? Thought it was drier and thicker.
Well I'm just assuming since lahoh is mainly a southern yemen food and they traditionally ate other types of bread in northern yemen.
It would be pretty odd if we reimported the word for a food we ate right?
Maybe, the thing is that since Somalis have been in Yemen for a long time it’s possible that those in Yemen got used to that word and then moved back home and continue to use it.
I was actually talking about the word Canjeelo/Canjeero.
In the north laxoox/canjeeroi is made from Sorghum flour which is gluten free, same as teff, not sure Sorghum can be fermented in the same way as teff, which is only grown in the Ethiopian highlands.
No i highly doubt canjelo is an amahric loan word. Keep in mind that the substartum of amahric is cushitic. There probably aren't any ahamahric loan words in somali.
That’s a great point

I came here to say somaliweyn doesn't exist and everybody should focus on the region or district their qabil comes from.
2 pages of people arguing about the difference between canjeero which is consumed by all somalis in 'somaliweyn' every single morning and malawax basically an oily sugary pancake lol

Alot of the dishes consumed in south yemen are from somalis.
We've been psy-oped into believing 90% of somali culture is foreign. When in reality somalis don't adopt foreign customs often. The only thing i can think of that is recently imported is basto and some other Italian loan words.
Long term somaliweyn will be a must for several reasons irregardless of qabyaalad. Clans will actually have to support it I will list why.
Hawiyes / Rx
- Particularly those clans who live along the rivers. It is a lifeline and with Ethiopia already damming it, they cannot risk further dams.
Dir & Darood
- Most of their population lives outside of Somalias borders, having all of their population under one country will benefit them alot. Clans function as voting blocks evidenced by SL elections. Overall having your population not be splitted will bolster co-operation and cohesion.
Somali galbeed is a must, it is too vital for it to be controlled by gaalo. The sources of Jubba and Shabelle should be in the hands of us.

Unless there’s tensions between your qabiil and the qabiil of those that are majority in the area you’re trying to live in, you won’t receive much trouble in most parts of Somaliweyn as a foreigner.
I know several people of different qabiils who live and work in areas you’d wouldn’t expect their qabiil to be in. From what they’ve told me, they haven’t experienced much trouble.
Laxoox? That's what idoors call it. We call it malawax boowe
Landers call it malawax, too.
It does exist, What does your mind not understand about a greater somali state existing with resources also being dedicated to localities. This state fgs 4.5 bs whatever you call it is one of the worst things to happen to somalis.
Youre just blinded by qabyaalad and hate, you can even see your somaliweyn shining thru in your second sentence
Canjeero and Malawax is what you call it, laxoox isnt that a loan word?
I use to like malawax but I cant stand it anymore, I prefer canjeero.
Exceptions for malawax and sambus thats good, way better than bur (mandazi)

Almis
The Gulf of Berbera
They all are loan words
Malwax=ملوح
laxoox= لحوح
Are all from yemen
Canjeero is a xabashi word injera
Of course a sujui like you would call it mandazi
You need to leave that beer in Greek yoghurt for a few hours or overnight, I used a meat hammer to pound it so it evenly cooks, I keep it simple, usually adding a couple of green chilis and onions and some tomato paste towards the end.Sxb just like @Step a side i call this malawax. Canjeelo is the one we leave out for a little bit that has a little more of sour taste
malawax and beer cooked in marakh digaag
Use some critical thinking, Khobz, kubane, fateer and kudam are more popular across the whole of Yemen, they call Laxoox(Lahuh) and it's usually consumed on the coast of the red sea, where Somali historically settled and traded with them, culture goes both ways, we've also picked up stuff from them.
