Waxaan diiraa baradhada.

I peel the potatoes.

Waxaan jarjaraa kaabajka.

I chop a cabbage.

Waxaan jeexaa kaarootada.

I grate the carrots.

Waxaan dhaqaa digirta.

I wash the beans.

Waxaan jaraa lowska.

I cut the butternut.

Waxaan jarjaraa isbinaajka.

I chop the spinach.

Hooyaday waxay jarjartaa basasha.

My mom chops the onions.

Basasha way iiga oohisaa markii lajarjaro.

Onions make me cry when they are chopped.
