When does it open?
Goorma la furayaa? means when does it open?. Goorma means when, la is the impersonal word meaning one or they, and furayaa means is opening, so the question is literally when is it opened? Somali uses this la form where English uses a passive. In full it is Goorma ayaa la furayaa?, and the same pattern gives Goorma la xirayaa? (when does it close?). Answer with the time: Siddeedda (at eight).
