Pink
Basali is the word taught for pink. It comes from basal, onion, so pink is literally "onion-coloured", after the pale pink-purple of a cut red onion. Some speakers describe pink as guduud khafiif ah, light red, instead.
Tip: Basal is onion; basali is the colour of a cut onion.
Point at the real thing and say "Basali" whenever it comes up, then let your child hear the native recording and say it back. One word used ten times in a day beats ten words drilled once. In the Luuqad app, Basali is taught with a picture, tested in the Colors quiz and practised in Coloring.
Guduud, Buluug, Cagaar, Jaalle, Madow, Cadaan and more. Then take the quiz.
