dc.description.abstractThe chapter debates whether Somali grammar includes a true syntactic category of adjectives. Earlier scholars considered certain elements as adjectives, while later linguists reclassified them as verbs. The author challenges this view, arguing that treating them as verbs creates inconsistencies and overlooks a simpler grammatical explanation supporting the adjective category. l capitolo discute se nella grammatica somala esista una vera categoria sintattica di aggettivi. Gli studiosi più antichi li consideravano aggettivi, mentre quelli più recenti li hanno reinterpretati come verbi. L’autore contesta questa posizione, sostenendo che tale analisi produce irregolarità e ignora una spiegazione grammaticale più semplice che giustifica la categoria dell’aggettivo. Cutubkani wuxuu ka doodayaa in naxwaha af-Soomaaligu leeyahay qaybo eray-bixin oo si gaar ah loogu tilmaamo sifooyin. Cilmi-baarayaashii hore waxay u tixgeliyeen qaar ka mid ah erayada inay yihiin sifooyin, halka kuwii dambe ay u arkeen ficillo. Qoraagu wuxuu diidan yahay aragtidan, isagoo sheegay in fasiraaddaasi ay abuureyso khaladaad iyo in la dayaco xeer fudud oo naxwe ah oo taageeraya qaybta sifooyinka.en_US
