Suuliga (Toilet): illustration from the Luuqad House lesson

Meaning

Suuliga means the toilet. The base word is suuli, and -ga is the definite article, the; the app teaches the word with the article because that is how it is almost always heard. Musqul is the bathroom or washroom, while suuli is the toilet itself.

Tip: Suuliga already contains the, so say suuliga tag, go to the toilet, with nothing added.

Example sentences

Suuliga tag.Go to the toilet.
Suuligu waa nadiif.The toilet is clean.

Using Suuliga at home

Point at the real thing and say "Suuliga" 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, Suuliga is taught with a picture, tested in the House quiz and practised in Heritage Hunt and Drag & Learn.
