New words and their Roots

Description
Hooyo means mother, and within that word, we have "hoy" meaning home, a place of refuge. Without a " hoy" or "home", there is no life.  You just feel at home whenever you're with your mom since she's full of mercy and compassion.  Guur means two things simultaneously, marriage and move. Technically, you move when you get married.  if we take out the first letter in guur the "g" we're left with "uur" which means pregnancy. Typically, you would expect pregnancy after marriage. And let's even go further and take away another letter from "uur" we're left with "ur" which means smelly, odorous. So here is the sequence. "Guurso" (get married), anticipate a pregnancy, then deal with smelly diapers and other issues😂. The word "guur" kind of captures the responsibilities that come with a marriage.  The words you've learned today: 1): Hooyo = mother 2):  Hoy = a place of refuge 3): Guur = marriage/ move 4): Uur = pregnancy  5): Ur = smelly, odorous 6): Guurso = get married  Thanks for listening until next time, Take care! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/learnsomalilanguage/support
