It's called love nwantiti

chrisdstar:

I think this is the most apt description of the phrase

And how do igbos say Big Love

Preciousgirl:
And how do igbos say Big Love

It means big love ironically.

In pidgin, it means love wey dey shack.

Word-to-word meaning: growing love.

Literal meaning: being in love.

This is a good English explanation

Oh that song:

Love nwantiti, love nwantiti,
Ije mu na love, n’ofudulu nwantinti
Ije mu na love, n’ofudulu nwantinti...

Lol.. We opened a thread exposing the fact that there is no word for 'Love' in ibo vocabulary but they quickly swooped on it, reported & got the thread deleted.

As usual, all i see here is 'Love' with no one perfectly translating into an ibo word. The closest is Ifunanya- which means' to look into the eyes'.

Small Love-- ibo translation
small-- nwantiti
Love-- ??

Ibos cannot say 'Love', they can only say ' big' or 'small'.

Seriously?
Go and get busy with life. Time wait for nobody.
If you want igbo people to tell you the meaning of love in igbo, ask kindly.

The lyrics were written in ibo except 'Love'- why can't you write or replace the word 'Love' in ibo?

Lol!

Okay. First of all, it is “Asusu Igbo” and not “Asusu Ibo”.

Secondly, I just typed lyrics of an old evergreen song. I am not supposed to tamper with the original lyrics. If you change it to “Ihunanya/ifunanya nwantiti” without the requisite approvals, don’t you think we will face copyright infringement issues?

Literally, it means small love or little love but the way it's used is more like a slang to say sweet or beautiful love. Love wey dey totori person

It's a word to describe two lovers who are not shy to show their love for each other publicly

It's Igbo not ibo
And we call love ihunanya, aboki

And your wisdom failed you to understand that "ifunanya" does not mean to look into the eyes.
"Ifu" means "to see"
"anya" means "eye(s)"
How then does "ifunanya" mean "to look into the eyes"

Well, for your information, "look" is "lee/le" in igbo language.
"See" is "hu" in general igbo or "fu" in tribalistic igbo common among the Anambra igbo.
Now, "ifunanya" or "ihunanya" means "to see in the eye(s) since "n" is a preposition translated as "in" in this regard.
Together as a noun; "ifunanya" or "ihunanya" means nothing but a figurative noun for "love" since it is unexplainable and love has to do with sight.
As a clause, "ifunanya" or "ihunanya" written in igbo language as "I fu n'anya" or "I hu n'anya" means "to see in the eye(s)". And this doesn't make any sense.

If you cannot unequivocally and unambiguously define "love", then you have no business defining "ifunanya".
Leave alone for the language for the owners.

Did you know that "GB" is the 8th letter of the Igbo alphabet like it is seen in Igbo.
