By golly u r right! I just checked. And the last comment.but one was in March 2015 till yesterday!!

Bomgirl:
Real mature!! You woke up today and told yourself 'why don't I go online and call random people i've never met 'biiitch''.
You are a disgrace to the 'wise men' we have in the east. Keep throwing tantrums online like a child whose toy was taken away.

Wisdom begets wisdom.
If you were wise enough to ignore the thread instead of ignorantly telling people that their time is being wasted , foolishness will not have replied you.
You are not wise, ma.
I am sure there are many owambe and ewedu threads that will suit your mental level, just not this one.

Abi?

1kingwriter:
You got it accurate.

I can confidently say that many people sweating here never wrote Igbo language in WAEC neither are they fully involved in Igbo literature.

Biko, do we remember Omimi Asusu Igbo?
Chidimma - Correct.
Chidinma - Incorrect.

For those talking of tongues or dialects in Igbo language, it does not work here.
The written Igbo is generally accepted. Many refer to it as the CENTRAL IGBO.

you are very correct.

N and M don't share same word, cos we pronounce N while closing our mouth, and M supercedes it.

For those that claim dialects, we don't write in dialects when we write Igbo.

Its Uto Asusu Igbo we write.

Maybe they had to dig it up by popular demand. Lol.
funny Mods!

HomoDroid:
This post makes me fear for BIAFRA - It is an accident waiting to happen.

Many think it's greener on the other side until you get there.

I have always wondered how the wise men from the east will handle land matters, when the multitudes return home upon actualization of Biafraland and want to settle. The reality of Population/Land ratio will take its toll, not to talk of loss of market access in the immediate!

Some claim they are Jews, without learning from the debacle of Israel after exit from Egypt.

Problem started when they wanted to choose the correct God to serve. They will certainly mob Nnamdi Kanu!

Then came the wars between Judah and Israel after the game of Thrones started.

The Holy Bible is a prophetic reference for anyone wishing for BIAFRA.

For unbelievers in the scriptures, the Old USSR is a viable treatise!

Let's nurture Nigeria together and face the real enemy - the gluttonous Nigerian leadership,together with the World leaders manipulating the the national resources and encouraging our leaders to loot!

The USA, Britain, France are all spent forces milking Nigeria dry and sucking our blood for survival! They are the real enemy!

For those who regard this post as useless, it has been really enlightening for us non-Igbos!

You made sense till u came to the part about US/UK milking u. Ha ha. Also you'd be more credible if u were Igbo like me

MilitaryControl:
Seriously?

So what happens with NMAMDI?

Its spelt NNAMDI

There is what we call "NDAGBA MYIRIUDAUME" in Igbo language. 'N' and 'm' do not go together in a word. The correct spelling is Chidimma, and not chidinma

Who is "we"?

PHgirl:
Igbo people in the house, I hail, oh! Something's been bothering me. @topic, do you guys bear Chidinma or Chidimma? Are they the same thing? Because I've seen the two. Thanks in anticipation.

Chidimma = ChidinmaIt's just a matter of local tone.

Stuart = Stewart

Jon = John = Jean

Franklyn = Franklin

Carolynn = Caroline = Karolina = Carolina

Catherine = Katherine

ChinenyeN:
This is dumb. Are you all really about to have an argument over an alphabetic and orthographic system that isn't even ours? For goodness sake, the two are the exact same, just spelled differently. Depending on the dialectal region you're from, one spelling may be favored over the other.

not same. Spell knife in igbo

NeduLuiZ:
Chidinma is the correct spelling

Beauty or good is spelt as "nma"
While an old woman or mother is spelt as "mma"

Chidinma means God is good.

Chidinma and Chidimma are not the same name even though they are close in spelling..

Chidinma - God is good

Chidimma - God is good to me

Chimdinma - My God is good

Chimdimma - My God is good to me

Both Names Are Very Correct.

chidimma is the name of my first lover, though we r not together anymore. Now in Igbo, mma means good, chi means God, ie God is good Chidimma, but chidinma may be correct too like we have favour and favor.

I concur with that. The exact explanation

I am sure there are many owambe and ewedu threads that will suit your mental level, just not this one.

1: you called him 'foolishness'
2: una get time does not mean 'una de waste una time'. At least not to me. *eyeroll*
3: I am from 'God's own state'. So I don't know what you mean by 'ewedu and owambe thread'.


I still can't get over the fact that you called that dude 'foolishness ' though!

Eke40seven:
May be when I break it down you will understand.
like in my dialect, we say "nma" for "good" or "beauty" but I know people with the name "Chidimma".
This is the breakdown
Chi-dim-nma--- But when you pronounce together as one word as in many instances in our language, the 'n' becomes silent. Note, its just the case in my situation.
Dialects and all your explanation could apply as you explained in YOUR example.

And what is "chidiri" sounds funny.

reason we need to integrate our local languages into our school curriculum......thanks you Lagos govt.

No, just pointing out something extraordinary, mumu

'God's own state'. Shameless copycats. Why don't u find something original. Makes me cringe.

[quote author=ChinenyeN post=31644564]Yes. They mean the same thing, with respect to the name, Chidinma. [/lie. N and m can never be together in igbobword. Chidimma is the correct one. Chidinma does not exist but only in the imagination of my mama say I be Ibo people. quote]

PHgirl:

One may be the legal one but both are correct

Extraordinary, because this is the first time an old thread is being revived?

Girl, you're savage! Lol
Guess you're new here unless otherwise, so let me tell you their typical character here; Say anything that does not appeal their sentiments, you're tagged an "Afonja" regardless you're Igbo or not.
