Them neggas got lacag though

They do but I don’t like them

Most Somali Kenyans have that African accent, I don't know why but it doesn't make any sense, is it the environment that makes them adapt that ugly accent, someone need to explain this.

I like kenyan people in general, they are polite and easy to get along with

Why do British Somalis sound British, why do Canadian Somalis sound Canadian

Do the math guys

You know Canadian English sounds American

Bro you are too nice and too positive to be Somali, some times I feel like you are a white man.

Canadian Somalis don’t sound Canadian lol. Have you been to Toronto? Their English sounds like a mixture of creole and Ilhan Omar talking

 

[AishaBarri]

They sound similar that’s why I didn’t mention America duh. Only a refined ear can tell the difference. A NY accent doesn’t sound like a southern accent. Don’t make it seem like I don’t know what I’m talking about.

They’ve been living there for a while so not sure why you’re surprised

















But don’t get me wrong...I want to punch them

I don’t mean white So you’re telling me Somalis here sound straight outta Somalia?

 

[AishaBarri]

Whenever they speak like kenyans and wear kenyan flag bracelets anger overcomes me. I once asked this somali sujuu kid why he wore the kenyan flag and supports kenya. This dude went on a kenya glorifying spree, which made me wanna puke. Talking about its development and how great it is. Some sujuus are a disgrace wallahi. Whenever they go to other countries they like going in groups to kenyan restaurants. In 1 more generation these guys would become Madows.

Also, people talking about american, uk, or canada. Warya these are the accents of people who are native to the language. They are also great nations. And when you speak like that you sound fluent. Unlike this bantu english where you kill the whole language and sound like you trying to speak english like some sorta bantu language.

Bantus

Has anyone noticed they have a distinct appearance. You can tell there’s a slight hint of Bantu from all those years of living together.

What’s your problem? This is why Somalis have early onset bidaar. Worrying about things that don’t concern you
