Yoruba is a tonal language. The Igbo war chant, Nzogbu Enyi mba Enyi when rendered/written by a Yoruba as seen online is, 'Nzogbu Eyin mba Eyin', adding an 'n' to the Enyi word, in line with the language's tonal feature. Therefore, it comes as no surpise if the word was adapted and 'n' added to it in line with its tonal feature. Nwantinti = wantintin in Yoruba. It is always about the 'n'.

There is no evidence that the word originated from Yoruba. I have provided evicende that shows the usage in Igboland to as early as 17th century, and the pervasive use of the 'word' in Igbo names, thus making it likely originating originally from Igbo land and spreading to other areas.

What is the truth in the jargons he wrote? I am a Yoruba and I speak both languages fluently does that mean I have "inferiority complex and bow down to the Brits" as fulaman198 says?

It is an insult to suggest that those illiterates in north east are better than the rest of us because they can't speak English.

Fulaman198:
So speaking English gauges one's level of intelligence?

Not only are you uneducated and bigoted, but your brain must be ossifying to the state of a true slave.

Radoillo:
What I know is that it is hardly an issue in my part of Igboland. I have never met an Osu my entire life. I was introduced to the Osu phenomenon in my Igbo language and culture classes in secondary school... and in the media.

When I began asking older family members about it, all they could tell me was that there used to be one Osu family in our town...but they left soon after the Civil War and no one had heard about them since.

Like I've said before in another Osu thread, people tend to make this osu thing a bigger deal than it actually is.

At 30 you shouldn't have problem getting admission to most schools and courses abroad. Where you will have more convincing work to do is in the area of getting Visa.

Ota! one would believe the white or caucasian came to us before we could learn, When in reality we have had infinite knowledge. Ota as you said is not really an atom but the begin of an atom. Atom was the first thing that appeared in the triple darkness of space/universe. If it is Ota as same a bullet, that means "spark". thankyou brother, i will stick to ota. ota is either an atom as you have said or spark/explosion.

gatiano:
Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou, do you mean "ota" as it sounded like in sango ota? or ota as in bullet? obviously it can't be ota as in enemy? I was thinking it could be "ASHE". as in AMEN. Very big Thankyou bro. i want to start comprehensive Nigerian language, that would wake its scienctific part and technology. this way we won't have no illitrate. this is my take.

gatiano:
can anybody please tell translation of ATOM in yoruba, igbo and hausa. i need a word not phrase.

Fulaman198:
Facing reality means that we should stop relying on them. Africans are a disgrace. How can you be stooping like a slave and worshipping the ground they walk on? They come to your country and steal your natural resources, and you call that helping? that's bullcrap! Grow a pair of balls, and join in on picking good and competent leaders that respective their own people and don't bow down to westerners like a bunch of sellouts.
