Episode description

In this episode, I teach you how you can give "verbal commands" in Somali.

Hopefully, after this new episode, you will be able to give commands in Somali or at least will know something about it.

In English, it's pretty easy because the base verb is the command already. What do I mean by that?

Look at this!.   Eat is the base verb at the same time isn't it a command when you tell someone "eat this or that" 

you don't do anything to the original verb to make verbal commands in English; however, in Somali, it goes through some changes.

Let's look at this!.  Cabid (Abid)  to drink would change into "cab" just three letters. " Qorid" writing turns into "qor" write! etc.

I hope you've learned something new. Insha Allah I will try to make new episodes in the coming days stay tune.!
