At the Somali Wikipedia there is an 
article about 
the Somali national flag and an 
article about "flag". 
There is also a separate 
article/page 
with the Somalian flag law. These include three declinations (?) of 
the word: "calan", "calanka" 
(ergative?), and "calankiinna" (genitive?). 
These also be spelled in Osmanya, Latin, Arabic, and Borama scripts, 
although only Latin is in current use.
