Have you never met a lander

Idk, I never ask people their clans nor do my parents/ family elders tell us which person is from what clan. My family never talk about clans in front of us lol I've started learning about clans from sspot and brief online research. However unfortunately, there isn't a lot of written research that teaches somali tribes basics 101 (breakdown). All I know is that everyone around me knows it as canjeeLo or canjeeRo. I would love a basics class on which clan dominates which parts of somalia, what each clan is known for, a bit of history of each one, the relationships between clans...etc

Someone should teach Somlia clan 101 at a college or uni. I would definitely enroll lol

Some nomad somalis in waqooye and galbeed call it "kimis" that's another word it is known for

You must've encountered some idiots then cause Kimis is the northern word for sabayaad

The uk is a different jungle, tbh I always respected American somalis for never discussing qabil. From the little I know. You have dir, which have the cisse in dijbouti, and the gadabursi/samaroon that live in awdal mostly, somaliland even had a gadabursi president once. Then you have isaaq that live in sland, there's habar awal, habar yunis, habar jeclo and ciidagle which are the main isaaqi clans. Hy and ciidagle are part of garxajis so they're buddies. And in habar awal you have cisse muse and Saad musse which are both large clans. Hy and hj share burco and togdheer idk bout the others. Then you have darod which are spread everywhere really, most are in puntland with MJs etc I don't know where they live in the south tho, some live in somaliland hence why there's conflict in the sool region which is right by puntland, these guys are dulbahante and or warsengali I'm not sure. Then you have ogaden which is also darod. Then you have marexaan which is darod as well. And then hawiye which I know nothing about other than aideed and Ali mahdi.

lol Kimis is what Reer Burco call Sabayaad. I don’t know how that poster who is a lander doesn’t know this.

 

[Yami]

Laxoox is somali why you niggas credit everything to dhegacas. They got laxoox from us not the other way around

He's spreading disinformation to confuse the American somalis.

Reer djibouti and western waqooye actually use the word sabaayad for kimis

 

[Wonyluvr]

Reer koonfuur we say caanjeero

Yes we know but Kimis is still a waqooyi word as it’s predominantly used by Reer Burco

It's because southerns/North easterner want the idea of somalis originating next to Mogadishu to be the status quo. So they say canjeero is somali and not from Ethiopia, and laxoox is for sure Arabic straight from Yemen.

Interesting. I assumed that all the sub clans that started with "Habar" were hawiye, had no idea that many were isaaq There is too many somali clans I need a graph that shows a visual breakdown

Huh that’s not it caanjeero and laxoox are the same thing it’s just the names has nothing to do with Mogadishu

Hawiye is more related to isaaq then darod btw. And darod is huge, they have the most large clans and they cover everywhere but somaliand other than sool.

I KNEW YOUR KNOWLEDGE WAS LIMITED BUT I NEVER KNEW IT WAS THIS LIMITED YOU KNOW NOTHING WALLAHI REER KOONFUUR MEANS PEOPLE OF THE SOUTH
