Omarbah:

Yah the new Pullo bro YonkijiSappo wants to know if you consider them Fulani.

Did you understand the Adamaawaare that he wrote when he introduced himself and spoke of his mother and father?

He's right though about America in that video, it relates to some of the stuff we were discussing a few months ago.

Fulaman198:

Yes it is. Soon they will transform it into Americanre lol

Omarbah:

Yes it is. Soon they will transform it into Americanre lol

When that happens, we will have to start inviting American born Fulani people of Guineejo origin to our KJPF meetings.

I notice that you guys use

"si" for if in Guinea for your Fulani dialect OmarBah

In Nigeria we say To "Pronounced as "Toh". Is the "Si" from French? Because Si also means if in French.

Yes I did. From listening to the music and watching some movies from Adamawa, I am getting used to the dialect.
So Daada is mother, and Baaba is dad. For us, Nene or biro or youmma( Arab origin) is used for Mother and Baaba or Baben( more respectful form) is used for father.

It could be from french.

Mother is also Inna (just another variation of Daada)
Baaba is also Abba

Nene is mother in many other languages as well
Yumma can also be mother as well.

Fulaman,
Does Lamido Adamawa speak fulfulde ? I am referring to Alhadji Muhammadu Barkindo Aliyu Musdafa.

Omarbah:
Fulaman,

Yes, Lamido Adamawa speaks fluent Fulfulde. Most Fulani from Adamawa really take great pride in our language. Adamawa, Taraba and Gombe Fulani really pride the language over Hausa.

There's a saying that 'Fulbe to leydi Kamaru e Fulbe to leydi Nayjeria fuu gootum. '

We both really love our language.

Yeah I think Fulani have some great comedians. There is one from Cameroon too that has some very funny videos. We have some great comedians man.

What's his name?

Omarbah:

What's his name?

I forget his name, but he lives in France now. Are you familiar with the Mboscuda of Cameroon? It is an organisation of settled Fulani who help out the nomadic Fulbe (Mbororo'en)

It is my first time hearing about them. I have known Lamairu network for a while though.

The Mboscuda is the equilvalent of the "Mi yetti Allah" association in Nigeria.

Btw, could you understand the Adamawa fulfulde in the video?

About 50% of it lol. I am rather better with Gombe fulfulde.

Omarbah:

Gombe Fulfulde is similar to Fouta Djallon Pular from Guinea and Fuladu Pular in Gambia. So I can understand why you do better with it. Sokoto Fulfulde is similar to Maasinakoore and Fulfulde spoken in Benin (Dahomey).

All in all, Eastern Fulfulde also sometimes referred to as Adamawaare or Fombina fulfulde (spoken in Eastern Niger, North Eastern Nigeria, Chad, Northern Cameroon, Central African republic and Sudan) has its own flavour.

I wonder why Gombe fulfulde is similar to the one of Futa Jallon . Do you have any theory on it?

Omarbah:

Remember Nigerian Fulani are not all from Nigeria originally. Different clans descended from different parts of Fulani land. Some clans come from Fouta Djallon, some come originally from Fouta Tooro, some come from Maasina, etc etc. When I was on Facebook, there was actually a discussion of this. Because there was a group commenced by Ibrahim Malal Sarr in regards to the different Fulani dialects despite it still being one language (just like there are different forms of English).

It was an interesting discussion. With Fulani coming from various regions. So Nigeria has a very diverse makeup of various Fulani groups (there are at least 20).

Good to hear from our Sudanese brothers. There was a documentary by Al Jazeera on us, but it was in Arabic.

Are you familiar with the Fallatah last name?

Omarbah:

I agree, it's a great song. Do you understand it, it's the same dialect as Adamawaare

Omarbah:

No, I'm not really familiar with it. I just thought that Fellata was the word Arabs use to describe us

Fulaman198:
