SS Terminology

[GodKnowsBest]

Hello Everyone,

When I first joined here I had no idea what half the slang terms meant.

To begin with,

What does Sheegato mean? Is it like the Somali version of a fugazi?

 

[DuctTape]

Sheegato = pretender or faker
AKA someone pretending to be Somali
What the hell is a fugazi

Is Sheegato a normal Somali term? I thought it was slang. And no, I understand Somali however it isn't my first language Hence why I type in English.

It's a normal somali term I'm surprised that you don't know about it at all

It means like "right?" It comes from Italian where they like to end the sentences with "no?" where it has the same purpose.

I dont even know how its spelled. But they always say it at the end of sentence.

Maybe its Italian because you will only hear it from muqdisho
