When u put NWAKA without spacing it out, its an insult in igbo. it should be NWA KA EGO/AKUNUBA

When u put NWAKA without spacing it out, its an insult in igbo. it should be NWA KA EGO/AKUNUBA

I thought the insult was spelt "WAKA" not "NWAKA" ,and i also thought the word was hausa "SHEGE WAKA BANZA" _{or something like that}

And come to think of it i have a friend that goes by the name (a lot others do too) and its not spaced, they actually write NWAK(A)EGO or friends can shorten it NWAKA

In norwegian it would be . . barn er større enn penger

Well i really appreciaate everyone dat paticipate in this tread
but am not an Igbo guy i just spell it according to what they call it.
My dear Ziddy am sorry that OMOJOLA is not corrcet it simply meana CHILD IS GREATER THAN WEALTH BUT I SAID MONEY.
Pls make sure you put the NAME of the Language after the INTERPRETATION.
Guess what dat is my name but i bear it in YORUBA.
dont tell any oneo

there is a difference between Nwakego and Nwa ka-ego. (two vowels following each other)
Nwakego is a name - a proper noun
Nwa ka-ego is a simple sentence - you can see the noun and verb there.

you're right. {not the insult part, but the spelling, of course}. It's Nwa Ka Ego.

NOT nwaka ego.

@cute_ass
names aren't usually spaced out. like the sentence: Onye Ka Chi? The name form would be Onyekachi.

I know hun, but the poster said "translate it in your language", not necessarily write it as a name in your language.

As a name it would be NWAKEGO, but as a sentence it would be NWA KA EGO . . the norwegians for. ex that don't have it as a name have to space it.

But still if you go back to my previous post, i didnt space it, the person you quoted first (Ezinwannem) did!!

          I wont say a word. lol. Nwaka or waka which do u mean. lol. Even waka(if that is what u mean) the insult, is not an igbo language its borrowed. Have I said too much.           

_{There is this Igbo school in the states, they are very flexible with time, am sure they'll meet your needs. lol}

@cute_ass
i thot the story about your friend's name was supposed to be an explanation of why Ezinne is wrong. i guess you were talking about "nwaka" and "waka".

The story about my friend's name was to emphasize that "nwaka" wasn't an insult.

Ezinwannem:

"waka" ia an insult, and i do agree that as a sentence it should be " nwa ka", but the story was to explain that those who bear the name "nwakego" are atimes referred to as "nwaka" in a dearie way . . hence, its not an insult!!

ok, so i didn't explain my explanation well. from where i said ", why ezinne is wrong" add, "about spacing out the Nwa and ka".
there you go.

@ akyus,why the

@ janedoe. Keep it up, do not forget your culture Most of Tiv children of your age here in Abuja can not even translate come. Your parents are doing a job by teaching you your language in Florida. It really good to preserve culture.

@ Akyus,lived in Naija all my life,just moved to Fl 2 years back so I speak fluent Tiv
