About Sume Nalka Miiska

Sume waa nal miis ah oo laga sameeyay dhalo la afuufay gacanta iyo naxaas. Magaca wuxuu tilmaamayaa qaabka xuubka shinnida (honeycomb) ee naqshadda. Saldhigga waxaa lagu dahaadhay naxaas, oo mid kasta oo dabool dhalo ah waxaa gacanta lagu afuufaa, taasoo keenta in qayb kasta ay yeelato qaab iyo cabbir si yar u kala duwan. Nalku wuxuu leeyahay dhexroor 34 sentimitir ah iyo dherer 40 sentimitir ah. Sume waxaa lagu shaqeeyaa korontada guud, waxayna sidoo kale ku dartaa qalab lagu hagaajiyo xoogga iftiinka (dimmer), si xawaaraha iftiinka loogu habeeyo qolka. Naqshaddani waxay taageertaa xirfadaha dhaqameed ee farsamada gacanta iyo isticmaalka walxaha dib loo warshadeyn karo.
