    Tell me why as a Bantu speaker, I can pick up some vocabulary from Omotic, Cushitic, Chadic, Semetic and Egyptian languages?
    For example
    Oromo: Gara/Gala 'Stayed/lived at'
    Somali: Farxad 'Happiness'
    Middle Egyptian: NFR (Coptic:Nofri) 'Happiness, pleasantries'
    Coptic: Nane roouhi 'Good evening'
    Hebrew: Bat 'hand'
    Hebrew: Issac 'he laughed'
    Hebrew: kraw/Krav 'wrestle/fight'
    Bantu Shona: Gara 'stay/lived'
    Bantu Shona: Fara/Farai/Ndafara 'Happiness/be happy/I am pleased'
    Bantu Shona: Bata 'touch/hold/grab'
    Bantu Shona: Aiseka 'He laughed'
    Bantu Shona: Kurowa 'to Hit/fight'
    Bantu Shona: Mane rooh 'good evening'
    Bantu Shona: Manguva Nane 'good morning' .
    Linguists jumped the gun on analysing the interrelatedness between African languages classed as Bantu (Niger congo B) and Afroasiatic. The Sahara was a great lakes savannah before is desiccated after all.

    As a levantine Arabic speaker I feel could pick up some Aramaic, Soqotri sounds very similar to Arabic too, although the East African Semitic languages in this video sound like they seem to have a very similar semantic in the way they’re spoken especially Tigrinya Tigré and Silt’e…modern Hebrew is a colonial Frankenstein of a language.

    Being Somali I could say The Afar & Oromo languages share quite similar Words with our Somali language.
    I could hear from Oromo part the word (Magaala)= city also in Somali CITY.
    And Afar language I think I hear a full sentence( Illaha Leh)=God owns it ,and the word (Magacaa?)= Your name?, (anuka)=Us..etc
    If am wrong Oromo and Afar bros & sis can correct me.
    And also not only languag, being cushites and closely related genetically we share a lot of customs and traditions.
    Hope all east/horn countries will unite. Peace

The خ غ ض ق can never sound smooth and nice, just listen to some one speaking French or Hebrew where they use the letters of خ and غ frequently and see how horrible it sounds, and also that's the reason why Damascus people eliminated most of those letters thus getting a smooth poetic sexy accent. I could listen to someone from Damascus speak for hours and enjoy the accent, I've a Syrian male friend and it's just a whole different experience listening him speak, I'll never tell him that I like his accent but I just let him speak for hours even when there's nothing important to he spoken about lol hahahah.
