Granpa Ola sure is cranky o. https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-827167.544.html#msg9792755 I tried to mediate here; better than my usual fight-promoting nau. https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-827117.512.html Perfect Romance thread for Kilode. https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-827378.128.html OAM4J: All riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!

OAM4J: $1000/hour to teach Yoruba; what do you want Mandarin and Japanese teachers to charge? Even Mandarin teachers charge no more than $25/hour. And thats learning in the comfort of a house; if you learn while your teacher is doing his shift in chinatown, you can get for much less than that. shior You are better of buying an AK47 and dispossessing people of their valuables. Ole aji bole |

Katsumoto: Am sure na the same sontin we are talking about, but wait till Oluwo asks awon Iya to lock am, then u go sabi Katsumoto: You think its easy to teach 'amin oke', 'amin arin' and 'amin isale'? Besides am an expert |
Re: O Ye My People! by debosky(m): 2:14pm On Dec 19, 2011 |
OAM4J: Kats berra start begging Oluwo - any locking by awon iya takes at least two weeks to be unlocked (not speaking from personal experience )
Joo bami ko isale gan gan ni amin ede Yoruba - the girl just murdered the amin on this phrase: isale_gan2: Instead of 're-mi re-re' she used 're-re mi-mi' for ara-oko. Ara oko gbaa ni omo isale yii sha. . . .abi ikokuko omuti la tun ri nibiyi |
Re: O Ye My People! by isalegan2: 3:28pm On Dec 19, 2011 |
Mea Culpa! I made a mistake. Spotted it too late, and couldn't edit. I think I did it twice actually. Ironically, one area of Yoruba grammar in which I would get an A-1 is, accentuating / tonal marking. I suck at definitions though. All these ara-oko words from is just getting out of control. |
Re: O Ye My People! by isalegan2: 3:36pm On Dec 19, 2011 |
I was actually trying to play it safe so my words couldn't be twisted by that lurking malevolent Bleep-Rated Yoruba language and incantation expert, . So, I went looking for french vowels to differentiate certain corruptible words. Well, I goofed. That's what I get for being an overcompensating reactionary. Please don't say his name; he'll re-appear. |
Re: O Ye My People! by isalegan2: 3:50pm On Dec 19, 2011 |
(Crud! Not being able to modify is wreaking havoc on moi! lol. Hence 3 posts where one would do.) Okay, so Debo and OJ, I have to take you to the woodshed on this one. It took me until now to know whattheheck OJ was talking about here: OAM4J: debosky: I know y'all think you're perfect, but I am here to tell you both that the "amin" should be "ami." Just try saying it. Phonetically, it doesn't sound right. a-mi-n? aa-mi is what it sounds like to me o. How's my Yoruba now? Huh? I say, HOW'D YOU LIKE ME NOW? |
Re: O Ye My People! by Kilode1: 4:00pm On Dec 19, 2011 |
I dont know about the title but I like the interview below, especially the point about religion and publicity. I asked made a similar point in the form of a question on an Ifa thread here last year or so. I believe that our culture can use a great dose of propaganda and concious, targeted publicity Christianity was built on that basic, but powerful premise that there is something great to sell here, Go. Spread. The. Good. News. Jesus was a master at that. Mohammed too. Wether by force, coercion, manipulation or threat. Sell or perish. We (african religion, philosophy ideology ) have done a poor job of selling what we have. We gave up leverage. I understand we were forced to do that in many ways, but still. . . The question I asked on the Ifa thread was about the proselytizing nature of Abrahamic faiths, particularly Christianity, in comparison with say the Ifa/Orisa Religion. I wondered what could have happened to Ifa religion if it was a convert seeking faith. I mean an in your face evangelizing religion. Take Nigeria's Christian history as an example, the first wave of Christian revival came with European traders and colonialist. I believe the second was during the Protestant/Pentecostal revival of the 70s/80's ( that probably knocked Elebuibon's program off the air in the 80's) with everybody that was anybody attending a "fire spitting" pentecostal church, I'm sure most companies won't want to be branded as an Ifa promoter. Anyway, point is: If you think it's good, sell it. Or it will die with you. Learn from Jesus. Most Nigerians are closet traditionalists - Elebuibon |

OK Oga OAM4Jollification, I have a message from Kilode?! Please make my last post appear as soon as you can, and unban my ID. Your Spambot is acting like a face-slapping pentecostal pastor, misunderstanding somebody's comment/posts Cc: r231, Freiburger |
Re: O Ye My People! by debosky(m): 4:40pm On Dec 19, 2011 |
isale_gan2: Nice try. Since you and katz begged us to reduce the level of ijinle Yoruba in use on this thread, ogbologbos like OJ and myself have had to resort to watered down Yoruba that you simple folk can understand. As for the x-rated incantation expert, he'll be back once he wakes up. |

Remember how they used that opportunity to go deletions crazy in the other thread. "Off-topic posts" in a general thread, my a@@! Anyway, from experience, I know that most spam-botted posts will usually auto-resolve. okada_man: Happy Holiday, Kilode! They're not purists, o jere. The below is for them two. DeboDebo, Simplify this! debosky: Who be that? The one I'm thinking of never sleeps. |

okada_man: Am told the anti spam bot has released kilode?!, the post has been reported but only the 'Olori Oko' can release the post and he will do so as soon as he is online and less busy isale_gan2: Totally unnecessary |
Re: O Ye My People! by OAM4J: 5:27pm On Dec 19, 2011 |
isale_gan2: Katsumoto: Yeye! 'ami' or 'amin' same na ni for your level of Yoruba. See someone tagging ara oko as 're-re mi-mi' instead of 're-mi re-re' correcting ami and amin. . . shior! And see kats dey laff like say he even know wetin be ami |

Re: O Ye My People! by OAM4J: 6:02pm On Dec 19, 2011 |

naijababe: Whom is this directed at? I am waiting. But seriously, I give up. You are omo odua but please tone down this ijinle Yoruba. Its not funny any more. Ma je ka ja o. naijababe: Blow up doll? What is that? I am a traditional dude; I am not into all that sad and modern thingy. Besides, wetin concine you? Do you want to volunteer ni?? Idowuogbo: I don't know what those things are but I am guessing that they are for old folks. In which case, it is reasonable to assume that you are also a 'rock of ages'? Idowuogbo: O da mo. How many aristos do you have? dayokanu: Why am I not surprised? |
