Dear Foreros,
I've been wondering what one would call a bottle opener in the languages above. From people who have little acquaintance with the English language the following are the terms that I have come across:
1. Botal kholne-waalaa
OR
2. Botal kii chaabii.
Now there are a few suggestions that I have in mind but before I get to that, I would like to get a grasp of the variety of terms in use to define an everyday utensil. Ideally, I'd love a compound term, but if it doesn't exist any suggestion would do. Please avoid just translitering bottle opener.
Look forward to hearing from you all,
Sheikh
