Please count me in 'cause i am equally as passionate about the Igbo language. Nothing will give me greater joy than to see our language being mentioned in line with other international languages like French, English, Mandarin, etc. Take not cognizance of the naysayers because people are known to resist whatever they are not used to. One person can make a move that can change the world you know? So ride on brother, your work is greatly appreciated.

My pleasure. Thanks.

Scholti, I am saddened by the seeming, direction of this thread. You know I have been on this thread since day one, cheering you on. But I have to say this: No one knows it all. No one! As you are knowledgeable, so are there many other knowledgeable people on Nairaland and the fact is that if two, three or four people put their heads together, they will come up with a more superior product than one person working alone.

You have established that an affix can have meaning all by itself. But the question is, does it matter if it's an affix or verb agglutination? How much time do you spend arguing that as opposed to getting on with the work at hand? Do you know that fresh eyes see what you may not see, even if you go over the text a hundred times?
In the last page or so, I would say nobody out rightly rejected your ideas. Some suggestions were made as to why some of your affixes should be changed to familiar words which already exist in the language. But in each instance, you just argued that yours was better. Do you expect your suggestions to be adopted without a single change? Even those seeking to adapt a language must be themselves, adaptable.

Now we have ChinenyeN saying that you are both in the same boat but rowing in different directions. His response was gracious but I have to tell you that it is a waste when a knowledgeable person decides to sit at the sidelines. It doesn't matter how many knowledgeable people you think you have. The fact is that you can never have too many.

Don't think I am picking upon you. You are the thread starter. This is your love child, isn't it? So you have to work even harder to bring people together and see it come to fruition.

scholti:


The reason most scientific words in English are of Latin and Greek origins (50-55% of English words are of Latin origin) is tied intimately to the status of Latin in England (and Europe). England was conquered and ruled by the Normans, a French-speaking group, for centuries, who introduced floods of Latin-based words through French. French was used in high society. (Latin had inherited Greek learning in antiquity.) The same thing applies to all romance languages. They were once pidgins of Latin. The Igbo language has only been in intimate contact with English for less than 200 years, it isn't in the same socio-political situation that English was vis a vis French, Greek and Latin. When Igbos borrow from English they do so because they have no choice. There isn't a proper word base nor is there a refurbished grammar. Sure the Japanese has adopted words from English but they have also created plenty of local equivalents. No language sits back and allows every word enter the language unless specific historical examples like English and the romance languages. Languages borrow and create. Today robust languages find native words for many words.

When I write that nobody speaks Igbo well, I mean that the grammar and vocabulary do not permit the full expression of the sciences, politics, economics etc. The Igbo language doesn't allow serious communication (only in low-hitting areas.) The Igbo language needs the full and new vigour of fresh affixes covering every aspect of human life, to marry with the old.

I know English has a history with those languages, but I was talking about more recent words formed after the Normans had long gone. Words like physics, television, and telephone were all deliberately taken from Greek. And it took less than 50 years for English to go into the background when the Normans came.

Anyway. I agree that Igbo needs new words.

What I think you should have done is work with them to standardize the affixes we already have in Igbo. ChinenyeN mentioned an already existing affix for "able" as well as the letter "s".

There is a methodology to using the already existing affixes. Find out that methodology that yields the expected result in every given instance and then make it part of the rules of Igbo grammar (kind of like BODMAS).

Then where the grammar is insufficient, you add on your extra layer. Affix o! Verb agglutination o! It doesn't matter.

People will not accept change for change sake. After you come up with these affixes, how are you going to disseminate the information? Is it through the classroom? What about the middle age or old people who will not see the four walls of a classroom, again? If the young people do learn, how will they communicate with the older generation or will there be a chasm between them? That is why it's important to not throw things out wholesale, unless absolutely, necessary.

Are you going to disseminate the info via TV, radio etc. Well you will need an army be it script/screen writers, people that are good at animation, to create cartoons and write the shows that you need. So the earlier you get as many people on board the better.

If Igbo were the lingua Franca of a country it would be much easier. All you would have to do is get in the presidents ear and once he or she directs that this is the way it's going to go, then it's basically a done deal (yeah! Yeah! Oversimplification I know, but you get my point). Unfortunately, our situation is different so all I am going to stress is cooperation and more cooperation

ChinenyeN:
Scholti, I see your vision. In fact, the majority of your objective makes sense to me and I agree with it. Now, I don't exactly disagree with the other aspects of your vision. I just find them unnecessary. But at the end of the day, it doesn't matter how I feel, or you feel or anyone feels, because here's what we all know to be true: Whatever people see, learn to use and use actively will be what will perpetuate through time.

I can use my family as a case-in-point. We've taken up to using Ngwa for anything we can at home, and I mean anything. If we come across something that we either can't recall an expression for or there doesn't exist an expression for, then we make the effort of quickly constructing something and then moving on. Some quick constructs fade back to oblivion, and some persist and have expanded our vocabulary considerably. However, not all newly introduced lexical items were well-received.

For example, a new class of grammatical adverbs was introduced in our speech. Unlike most Igbo adverb classes, which qualify verbs, this class qualifies nouns. So, it's a bit atypical. The introduction of this class of adverb also led to a change in grammatical structure for the verb construction. This was not liked by the adults when it was first introduced, but those of us who are younger liked it and used it. It's now an active part of our speech, and it has allowed us more versatility of expression and in a more compact way. In fact, this adverb class has turned out to be so functional that it's hard to imagine the next generation of our family not using it.

Basically, feel free to push forward with your objective. At the very least, I would still be interested in seeing and reading whatever it is you eventually end up with, regardless of whether or not it turns out as successfully as you would hope. Keep us informed, and if you want opinions, there are definitely people here who wouldn't mind giving them to you. I definitely encourage that you post here or create a mailing list/group that willing people can subscribe to.

In Ngwa we have a saying: o buu ohna mgbutighta ovo chekpo (it's not everyone that has the capacity to kill and cure an ovo bird) A lofty vision typically remains in the mind and hands of the person envisioning it, until it picks up off the ground. I'd know. I'm in a similar boat as you, just not paddling in the same direction.

Thanks for your words and advices. The Igbo language is a dynamic language. I look forward to seeing an Ngwa dictionary in print and buying one. I believe that Izugbe must properly reconcile with the Igbo dialects as a vital part of it, in grammar and vocabulary. Plenty creates energy.

No, Phut. It's not like that at all. I understand just as much as anyone what it's like to take on a large project and have a vision in your head that you want to share. That's simply what Scholti has done. I'm currently experiencing that with my own linguistic project, and that's why I said that I'm in a similar boat as Scholti. Beyond that, I also believe in giving people room to develop and guide their work as they deem fit. The early stages of a project are critical in the mind of the visionary. They need to control those. No one else can do it for them, and if someone does, it quite literally can spoil the work in their eyes.

You know that i can actually be sold in your Ngwa dialect and i would be smiling from ear to ear not knowing what is going on? To be honest, i sometimes still marvel at the complexity of the Igbo language.

mm, i didighi hutu he o bu to. I've even been kind this entire discussion, writing in the Onwu orthography, standardized grammar and not using my own village lect. Anyway, yea. Igbo is complex, beautiful and capable of much, and I believe it can be moved forward as it is. That's not to say that I will discourage anyone else from trying anything different. If that different angle creates a good product, it'll likely get appropriated.

Scholti, there actually is an Ngwa-English wordlist/dictionary. It's rudimentary, but a second edition is being produced currently as a much larger and comprehensive work. There are also some PhD books on Ngwa lect, done by Ngwa linguists, as well as other smaller academic articles on various aspects of morphology and syntax. With the way Igbo people currently treat Igbo, I doubt Izugbe will ever be reconciled with the lects. Instead, what might happen is that people will forget their lects and eventually only know Izugbe. But, because Izugbe is a weakened version of many lects, we will again see those same people who forget their lects and now speak Izugbe turn around to say that "Igbo is insufficient."

Okay, Chinenye. I hear you

waow! Phut I commend you guys for your efforts and vast knowledge of the Igbo language. At this point i have to confess that I am not as proficient or verse as you guys in the use of Igbo language. Nonetheless I appreciate your efforts at sustaining the rich Igbo language, culture and tradition.

Kudos to you all.

@Phut I have no idea dearie, perhaps ChinenyeN, Scholti, ezeagu metal can help with that....lol

But, because Izugbe is a weakened version of many lects, we will again see those same people who forget their lects and now speak Izugbe turn around to say that "Igbo is insufficient."

I found an Ngwa dictionary on amazon (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Okwu-Ngwa-Dictionary-Victor-Nwosu/dp/1482018675/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1440082199&sr=8-1-fkmr0&keywords=ngwa+dictionary+igbo). I believe that the reconciliation of the dialects and Izugbe, would come initially (with a good dictionary on the side, whether online or bookform) through robustly written platforms like newspapers, until their words and grammars are integrated and popularized in the Igbo language.

I wrote that I would be releasing a list of affixes. Here it is- 971 affixes (find the MsWord document below; I can't post it here because this site doesn't allow the delineation Word allows). The delay was caused by my not wanting to release a rushwork. I took time in translating passages from three international languages across different layers of usages, scientific, literary, political etc into Igbo to test the new affixes I am introducing. This work also doubles as a mini-dictionary because I coined many words (find a sample list below). Of these affixes only 20 - of which ten are science-related - are outright inventions (below). That means that over 900 affixes here are Igbo words as well as 98% of the coinages.

In this work I have provided alternatives in Igbo to English affixes and to a minor extent, roots (although the two are somewhat intertwined). I believe that it is by unravelling the affixes of the English language that the Igbo language can create vocabularies in all sections of knowledge, the sciences, politics etc; and in the process engender a language that is truly laddered, subtle and responds effectively to all registers of language. I am happy to announce that I have accomplished it with these affixes, for there is no English affix of Greek or Latin origin,- where the vast majority of English words come from - that I have not touched directly or indirectly. I have touched a few of them indirectly because their extant meanings in English have strayed from their origins. In your hands now, is a complete programme that is capable of translating any genre of written work into Igbo, as well as creating original works.

Why are the affixes necessary? The Igbo language is a vast and beautiful language, but it dwells in a vastly different age, where it must adapt. Its grammar, whether the Izugbe or dialects cannot accurately communicate the sciences, politics, philosophy etc as it is. It needs some remoulding to enable it function in this new environment. Yes the changes would bring some obvious 'unnaturalness' to its grammar but it is worth it. There is no international language on earth that hasn't reworked its grammar to arrive at the stage it is - Chinese, Japanese, English, French etc. These 971 affixes hold the key to truly positioning the Igbo language as a serious language of knowledge and usage.

Here are are the 20 invented affixes. They are not capricious inventions; they answer to serious needs in their various areas. They were invented because the existing Igbo words for them are overburdened with other functions or they do not quite define them or do so in a circuitous/non-efficient way. For example the word 'igwe' is used to define several metal types, when it properly means 'iron.' Here are the ten scientific ones I invented (1) kazi= -tome, (2) azi=toxic (3) macha=friction (4) reje= virus (5) ozen- meter (6) zym=gid (7) taxi=tesi (9) metal=igomi (10) warm = ron.

The ones for more general usage I invented are: (1) -vo (-s); (2) -vi ('er', 'or'); (3) -omi (-ism); (4) -am (-ing); (5) -ogi (-ic); (6) -disi (various); (7) opan- (for electronic/ technological devices) ( zini for -arium (a place or container): herbarium (ziniahihia); terrarium (ziniala) (9) sidi=ville 10) -oid= ini i.e Indoid would be Indini

I will briefly touch on some of the ones I invented. The suffix '-vi' serves non-committal roles (or nationalities) for humans or non-humans i.e swimmer (mmirivi), pedestrian (okwu), contributor (nyerevi), transitor (nyefevi) narrator (akukovi)
projector (nnupuvi), originator (ebesivi).

'-vo' serves as plural to complement the existing native plurals in tight situations. The ancient Chinese proverb, 'One happiness shatters a thousand sorrows would translate as, 'Otu ọnọduaṅuri na-egbujisịkwa iriujuvo puku.'

'-omi' stands for '-ism' : Leninism (Leninomi), Marxism (Maksiomi).
'-siti' stands for '-ist' when refered to non humans i.e 'the Platonist belief' (nkwekwe Platositi)

'oz-' is a reversive affix - 'un', 'dis', de - and it is there to complement some of the native words (and affixes), I have commandeered like 'nsepu' and 'nseda' for reversals. For example the statement, 'it is unwarranted,' would be, 'Ọ dighi [b]ozọ[/b]ọchọwo.' The 'oz-' serves as a reversal. Now a person can say, 'Ọ dighi mma,'; but this is a simple/colloquial register that doesn't flow or capture the register, 'unwarranted' operates in. This strikes at the heart of what I am doing here as apart from creating new words and introducing new grammatical elements into the Igbo language, I want to further dimensionalize the language.

The are certain Igbo words that I stretched their meanings to produce new words, for instance I have appropriated the word 'akwa' to mean essence i.e akwandu (vital); ditto for the word 'eze' which connotes royalty, I have extended it to mean 'grand' or as an affix for the Greek affix 'magni-' i.e magnanimous – ezenyeaka; grandiloquent = ezeọnunrubeokwu; magnificent - ezeìhè; magnate= ezeaku; Magna Carta- ezeiwu; magniloquent – ezengalaokwu; magnificence = ezeebube; Magnum = ezeibu. I have also extended the word 'nne' to refer to roles refering to females of whatever age i.e dikenne (heroine). This would particular come in handy in dealing with gender-heavy languages.

I have translated a list of more than 400 scientific instruments with affixes I have generated here as well as translated the first few paragraphs of the Plato article on Wikipedia to demonstrate the interplay between the new and old grammars. https://ig.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plato. I would post the 400+ instruments on a new page.
