Money
from Learn Somali Language Podcast · host Khadar Osman
We do not pluralize when it comes to money. You know how in English you must add the "s" to satisfy the quantity of dollars you are talking about. For instance, you ought to say, "I have a dollar and I have two dollars and 10,000 dollars with the "s" if it's more than a dollar. Somali is quiet the different. It does not matter how much money you are talking about. You would still say dollar or pound or rupe. So don't be surprised when you hear one of us saying, "i have two dollar or I have 5 dollar instead of I have two dollars and I have five dollars. Thank you for listening. Make sure you support the podcast. And your support is appreciated. Thanks again and have a wonderful day, night whatever it maybe be for you!.
