Sam Of Somalia
34 episodes - English - Latest episode: over 1 year ago -The Sam of Somalia podcast is all about Somali language edutainment! My name's Sam, I'm an English guy from the Cornish countryside who Embraced Islam at 17 years old. I moved to London to complete an Arabic language degree and fell in love with the Somali language (and then a Somali woman) in my final year.
I'm on all platforms from YouTube to TikTok creating educational and fun content. I hope to demonstrate that if I can learn Somali, anyone can.

Click here to watch Thank you so much for tuning in for Episode 1 of "Macawiis Mondays" Notes, corrections and examples: * The video became more about politenesses in Somali rather than saying 'please'. 1) I gave the term 'fadlan' which is close to the English word 'Please' and is usually used at the beginning of sentences ("Fadlan hal saxan - One dish please"). 2) As expected, Tuugaa has nothing to do with 'shooting' anyone.....
