Beginners somali grammar, Nilsson M., 2021.

   Somali is spoken by more than 25 million people, making it approximately the 10th largest language in Africa and 70th largest in the world. Most Somali speakers live in five states in the Horn of Africa, but there is also a large diaspora that can be found practically all around the world.




Stress or high tone.
The realisation of word stress in Somali differs from the way stress is realised in most European languages, where it is mainly a question of realising a certain syllable or vowel with more energy. In Somali the main feature of a stressed vowel is that it is pronounced with a higher pitch or a higher tone than the rest of the word.

The Somali stress gives the word a ”melody”, and the position of the high tone in the word can sometimes serve to differentiate between words that are otherwise identical. In English there are often stress differences between nouns and verbs as in We're going to record a record. Also in Somali stress often serves to distinguish between grammatical categories.
