Why learn Somali?

Learning Somali is an excellent choice for anyone looking to work or do business with the region. It is rich in resources like uranium, iron, and gas and features a solid agricultural and livestock industry essential to the UAE and Africa. It also has a burgeoning technology industry, which shows promise for those who work or invest in upcoming tech.
Somalia is a strategically well-placed country that boasts the longest coastline in Africa. It occupies the tip of the Horn of Africa and is located along important shipping lanes of the Gulf of Arden, along with the southern approach to the Bab el Mandeb strait, the route through the Red Sea and Suez Canal, as well as being close to oil fields. This makes Somalia a vital trade and resource route between the United Arab Emirates and Africa.

For travelers to Somalia, having a working knowledge of the language will help you to get around the country safely and enjoy a more authentic experience with local cultures, sightseeing, and hospitality.
There are over 21 million Somali speakers worldwide. With immigration from Somalia growing in the UAE, it’s also an important language to learn if you want to communicate with your Somali-speaking neighbors, co-workers, and friends.
