@ alba3, you actually gave a great shot at the meaning of Alaba and I am 100% convinced with research that all Yoruba names are derived from Semitic root and Arabic words. Even the English names are derived through English interpreters of Hebrew'sTorah.

While,you are tryng to intrepete ìdẹ̀ as bronze is a inaccurate even if it you did a great justice to your view.Here are the classic meaning of ìdẹ̀,Ọ́jẹ̀ and ṣẹkè ṣẹ̀kẹ̀ as following :

ìdẹ̀=brass

Ọ́jẹ̀=bronze

ṣẹ̀kè ṣẹ̀kẹ̀ or ṣẹ̀kẹ̀ = chain,iron



Cheers

Olu317:
I do come online even if I dont comment. Honestly, I am okay and I hope you are good too.

Reading through your tactical view has always given me something to appreciate and adore. Keep it up bro.

I've been a bit worried lately not seeing your inputs. I'm happy you are back. I'm not afraid as to metaphysical, he's secure.

I know you do business online, please be discreet as to your identity. You have predators amongst our adversaries, I've been lured but I didn't take the bait. It's a clean one but God saved me.

The insidious enemy always hire prime suspects to do his bid, but the rope ends in his hands. I don't want to be a victim so I know where to stop.

May God continue to save us, it's a good fight.

Job 17.

Olu317:
Yes I do business online though with discreet but not so bothered by my identity, even if there are evil people who seek to take undue advantages through different means.

Indeed, I appreciate your concern and I'm always careful with whom I deal with or discuss sensitive issue with. So, thank you so much. And take good care of yourself too

It is of fact that I have reduced my input on the area of my specialisation due to my susupicion of some elements who actually are lookng for an opportunity to steal one's intelletual property which law will not support me if I sue such person(s) to the court of law because , a lawyer advised me on it after some enquiry on it that I shall loose such case due to it as unfinished work.

So, my intention is,to concentrate more on the work and relax when needed because the work is massively hard and challeging even if the discovery is 100!% truthful about semitic origin of the core yoruba's ancestors and descendnts.

My conscience was disturbed not warning you of my encounter with online predators' scheme to possibly harm me, knowing fully well that whoever is seeking my life from here is seeking yours too.

It's not even the research paper now, but your life or you being around to sue someone. Igba taa ba rigba la maa to rami. Please, know your customers and understand the frequently asked questions in your business line.

Never allow anyone or anything that will help all your long held aspirations land on your lap from "mystery source" online that wanted to help you without your consent (or your knowledge of who they were), and what is in it for them that you are the lucky one.

Iromi to njo lori omi, onilu e wa l'ale odo.

Online predators lure their victims with something they think the victim would want, which is the bait (our weaknesses) and build a relationship with the victim and finally deliver the victim to their deaths.

Nobody would hear anything from them ever again, their families would know they are missing, meanwhile they have been silenced by an online predator. Clean Murder. Be careful to sieve information and classify them accordingly.

Be a great lie detector. Never buy crap for truth at the expense of security. It really helps. Oju lalakan finsori.

Olu317:
A word is enough for the wise. Didnt take it that far but now I understand your innformation. Thanks a mlllion times.

Forgot to tell...she went for Arinola and Arẹola for her twins (a girl and a boy) after envisaging having Àíná and Àrẹwa (Our generalissimo). No one seems to know direct meaning of the name Àìná again.

Olu317:
Àíná has a meaning. The birth of a child has purpose in yoruba land. Especially peculiar ones whose birth are mysterious. So, dont be dismayed because À-í-ná do has a meaning.

The killer will not kill him for that submission. He would rather likes him. I just thank God for a man like you Olu.

YORUBA!

Kill yourself on their matter, they'll help you to die.

Olu317:
Ba mi, I cant die cos I am not a joke but a man on appointment from God. Trust me, it is beyond here.

I thank you and hope you will follow the precept laid down by God as you have shown, that you are a child of Yoruba GOD,whose name is Ẹlà or ọrùnmìẹlà.

Alba3:
It's difficult for present people to know direct meanings of many of the above names.

I will only explain 'Alaba'. It has Semitic or Latin Origin, where it's known as 'Alba'.
Alba is a "unisex" given name of Latin
origin meaning "white" or pearl. In Spanish and
Italian the name means sunrise or
"dawn". Aina is an indigenous Yoruba name with no Semitic origin or influence

Ala in Yoruba means white, bright, purity or dawn. Alaba Ọlọbẹ Idẹ (one with bright brass knife); exactly the way the dawn opens brightly from the east every morning.

In Semitic or Arabic, the name Ala means Excellence, Praise, Elevation, Saint, etc. Ala prefix is used in most praise names of the Yorubas.

Direct meanings of the fourth child of the twins, Alaba is actually beautiful and the direct meaning is in Semitic or Latin. It's Yoruba's version of Alba. It also means pearl - a gem, fringe or border (the last of the special children)

2prexios:


LOL

I am not alluding to you bro. I'm alluding to many Yoruba folks' cowardice and sense of betrayal right there.

I've raised an allegation of a conspiracy to harm me first on this thread. I gave valid clues to that effect.

The next post to that reeks of betrayal and cowardice.

As to what I'm doing, whatever is worth living for is worth dieing for. Can't be stopped by kidnap kingpins.

They are in their own jungle business and I'm on mine, if God expose them over and over, then He's alive.

I have more time to do more by His grace.

Your last meal alive will not be checkers custard in kidnappers' matured Jungle at any point, in Jesus name.

Amen.

Wickedness is like sport to the wicked.

You are correct and accurate. But there must be a choice at the end or else we won't get to the root of the meaning we seek. We must make a choice.

It's the sense of the word that determine the particular aja that the Yoruba have in mind, hence the interpretation given must have collocation as guide.

That's a step forward. Now observe the way collocation affect the new entry to the table: ajari: aja, fighter, Ori: head. I've not heard that name before.

The collocation (head and fight, fighter) implies that the fighter is the current head in that business. Like the head of fighters.

Now that is the remote validation inaccessible to the interpreter, and the validation of a claim is not the claim itself but consistency of what is claimed with remote check.

Why is aja not whirlwind?

In ajagbe, it's the whirlwind trip. In this case, the name tallied with Yoruba believe system that a man can be taken away by whirlwind and when he comes back, he becomes an Aroni.

But scientifically speaking, the Yoruba are a forest dwelling people, such whirlwind or tornado is not part of the possibilities here.

Then the Yoruba were speaking of a desert home, not here. In that case, they were thinking from a record. You can check through records in whirlwind prone desert culture to validate their claim.

Ajala

It won't make sense if we seek direct meaning of Ajala and insist on fighting as the interpretation of Aja, as found in Ajayi or Ajagbe. The Aja in Ajala is another version of its own.

The reason for this is that every Yoruba concrete noun takes a transitive verb of its own. Ajayi, ijayi; Ajani, Ijani; Idowu, Adowu etc. Ajala, Ijala.

Ijala is the hunters canticle. Ijala, orin ode. Borrowing from my research, Ijala is originally from the hymn book of the hunters. So it's a kind of book.

Ijala is like saying the heading of a line, the first word on a papyrus, the acrophony. I ja la, "the first glyph". It's like the song we sing when we were young, "ja tuntun ja tuntun".

Ajala is by this implication, one who started a new page in the history of his family. May we be an ajala even in our generation, amen.

NB, you can never attempt Yoruba language from the realms of least resistance, it's deep but enjoyable as it leads you through the mase and help you come out wiser.

If I, being Egun can be this fervent about it, I wonder what a Yoruba man can do.
