Blue
Buluug means blue, the colour of the Somali flag and of the sea along the longest coastline in mainland Africa. The word came into Somali from English and is now completely at home. Blue is a natural first colour for Somali children because of the flag: calanka Soomaaliyeed waa buluug.
Point at the real thing and say "Buluug" 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, Buluug 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.
