Everybody knows that King in Igbo is Eze and Ezer in Hebrew.

So, i went looking for the meaning of Prince in Igbo.

There were many definition but one stood out as credible becos it was a single word, unlike others that involved joining two words such as Nwa-Eze etc.


After discovering Prince meant Isi in Igbo, I was curious as to its meaning in Hebrew.


Prince in Hebrew meant Nasi.

I keep finding correlation between Igbo words and Hebrew words.

They are often so closely spelt or pronunciation.

'Prince' in Hebrew is 'nasich' (similar to the "ch" sound as in the word 'cholera'). We might be Hebrew and we might not be Hebrew; I think that the only conclusive way to find out is to conduct some DNA tests.

Yeah! Nasich means Prince, unfortunately my research from wikipedia gave me a shorter version. U have to copy the entire link to find the page.

I read somewhere else that, "Hebrew nasi' is the title given to the chief of a clan or tribe in the period before the monarchy".

So Nasi is old Hebrew whereas Nasich is somewhat new term. http://www.balashon.com/2016/12/nasi.html
