I know some of you are like "but you didn't say Please in there" you're acting like you have some authority over  the person, I would like to say the word "Please" is understood and you don't have say it! (We've got you covered!)  3): Maxaan (Mahaan) sameeya hadaba? * What am I supposed to do then? 4): Waa kuma?
