Posted on July 4, 2012 by Prince Charles Oforkaja On the Nairaland topic ‘New Igbo Words Being Formed On Igbodefender.com/forums’, Mbatuku2 said, ‘The Igbo word for spider web(onya) could be worked around to get Igbo words for Internet, Webpages, etc. Let’s emulate the japanese and israelis who always convert western terminologies into distinct equivalents in their own language.’ Following Mbatuku's suggestions, we declare that: Website = onyasaiti Webpage = onyapeji in Igbo Alternative words are: Website = webusaiti Webpage = webupeji To contribute to this project, either comment in Igbodefender.com, or go to this topic on Nairaland.com: https://www.nairaland.com/838649/new-igbo-words-being-formed Posted in News, Resourceful Equianoism, Think Tank Report |
