At present, I am only interested in Ondo dialect only, not Ilaje. Do feel free to apply if you are fluent with the Idanre. If you pass the selection test, I can have you on the reserve list. Just indicate 'Idanre dialect' when you send me your application.

If I have need for any other dialects in Ondo State in the near future, I will post a request.

Edema is from 'Eda Amo / Eda Ama / Eda a mo/ Eda a ma' = Creature of Clay / Molded Creature. This is 'man', the biblical 'Adam', which a word of Yoruboid origins.

Those translating Edema as gentleman just mean 'man'. Origins of 'gentleman' na anoda Tori entirely.

If you so much believe that Edema is a yoruba word then you can start by giving me the meaning, Thou dialect differ but you can easily tell which is Yoruba or not.

Edemadudun - Edema (Edoid) + dudu (Yoruba) .. You don't need a Prof to tell you which itsekiri word is Yoruboid or not, but I will definitely give you prove to my claim.. hold on.

Wow. To God be the glory.

For clarity sake; the military will hand over to an interim government headed by a Yoruba pastor. Tunde Bakare?

The Yoruba pastor
will surprisingly and against popular opinion hand over to a democratic government headed by the young Igbo guy that will clean up Nigeria.

God has a reason for picking a pastor for the interim government. The pastor's choice for the next president will surprise majority of Nigerians, but they won't know his choice will be as a result of a prophetic revelation by God.

Just like how some people have shown, a lot of people will be angry for the choice of an Igbo man when the time comes. Please don't be, you cannot imagine the turnaround God wants to do with His choice.

Take note sir iykomo0

Bakare said in late 2017/early 2018 that he would lead Nigeria. I saw that service online.

I saw houses with electricity and celebratory music playing out of them while houses with the current Nigerian emblem were in darkness and all the furniture in them were thrown outside. All the Houses were in a compound like form with no fences. The dream was before the last election that Buhari lost before he became President. Two parties were trying to merge but talks broke down. They would have won if they had merged as it was one of the new acronyms they later considered that was shown to me in the dream.

There are known as Afro Arabs, Google Afro Arabs in Saudi Arabia. If you watched the last World Cup, you should have noticed the black players in the Saudi team.



Defending the missionaries right? The missionaries came along with the colonialists, the missionaries were protected by the colonial government. The colonial governments sent the missionaries to help teach the people how to read and write, the missionaries together with this tasks began evangelism in Muslim areas especially in the north and south west. The colonialists stole many of our artifacts and history and took it to the Britain, the only innocent missionaries were those of African origin like Ajayi crowther and the rest.

And concerning Egypt, what you're condemning the Arabs of doing is exactly what the Christian Byzantines did. They forced the people to adopt their language of Greek. The Coptic language on the other hand is still utilized in Egypt.

And Abraham, Isaac and Jacob weren't Jews. So what's your nagging? Besides, Abraham is the father of Arabs, Isaac is their uncle so why can't they claim them?



You should read about the north under Islam, read about the likes of Idris Alooma and their achievements. I hope that isn't too much to ask?



Ok, that's your belief. Islam is a complete way of life which teaches you how to live. This is why shariah is clamored by Muslims in Yorubaland. The shariah isn't what you think it is, if you were sincere enough you would have at least read about it and what it entails. But your problem is you lack understanding of even your own bible as I'll expose you now.

Jesus supported Shariah, disprove from your bible.

Don't you think you should prove from the Bible that Jesus supported Shariah first, seeing ad the default position is that Jesus had nothing to do with Shariah? grin grin

Every Yoruba tribe has a part in it, Bro! It would take a full analysis of the whole Torah text to say which tribe owns most of it. Every modern Yoruba person is able to read and understand some of it because those dialects would have been one in the past; 'something' split the tongue. Most words are the same across all Yoruba dialects; some may be pronounced differently or have vowels or consonants removed or added.

Exactly!
I thought as such; I had wanted to do the translation in dialect I think might be closed to what he wants, Otun Oore (Moba dialect, which has also been influenced by Igbomina dialect) but I'm not so good in that but try my bit in Ekiti central dialect.

There was even[b] one Ekiti song like that: Elu o e, Elu o a.[/b].. also my father's middle name was Akinyelu; Olu (Lord) is more common now just like every other Ekiti word, language is not static. Languages and dialects will continue to grow and decay, new words will emerge through slangs, borrowing and the rest. There are lots of dialectal influences in Ekiti right now (Ijesa, Igbomina, Okun, Akoko, etc.), only the central one seems to escape these but still greatly affected by central Yoruba. Ekiti my grandfathers and grandmothers spoke was quite different to what we speak now. The dialect has been undergoing 'modernisation', replacing 'wonderfully ancient' Ekiti words with central Yoruba words.

That song was by Elemure. He is late now. I think there is Youtube video on him or his songs. There was also another Elemure who sang with an Ijesha dialect. Meeeehn! ���� That song must be some 30 - 40 years old o! grin

I don't think they are dialectal influences with respect to their location and neighbours, they have always been spoken like that. I do however agree there are influences that there are influences on the dialects. Younger speakers want to sound and speak like Lagosians; if only they knew what treasure they hold. My mum used to put her dialect down to the Water. She is Ijesha-speaking Ekiti and says they drink the same water as the Ijeshas, hence the Ijesha tongue. And of course, Ilesha is only walking distance from her hometown. My Dad's dialect sounds like Ife dialect which I used to find strange cos his hometown is in Ekiti North nearing Kogi State.

Having Shariah Courts in the Lagos will mean that many muslim women will leave Islam. Example is when they find out that their testimony is only worth that of half of man, or when a few women get stoned to death for adultery or fornication. Sharia Courts in Yorubaland will open the eyes of Yoruba muslims to the real spirit of Islam!

In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
10 A river watering the garden flowed from Eden; from there it was separated into four headwaters. 11 The name of the first is the Pishon; it winds through the entire land of Havilah, where there is gold. 12 (The gold of that land is good; aromatic resin[d] and onyx are also there.) 13 The name of the second river is the Gihon; it winds through the entire land of Cush.[e] 14 The name of the third river is the Tigris; it runs along the east side of Ashur. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.

pls can you translate these verses into ekiti language.

Many of the Paleo words are ancient Yoruba words, and the spellings, words and pronounciation have evolved over time, with contraction taking out vowels and consonants. When you vowelise from Paleo to Yoruba, you will find the vowelised words cut across mainly ilu-oke dialects like someone pointed earlier.

E.g. ELU is undisputably an old word for Lord in Ekiti dialects but trying to go from Ekiti to Paleo may give you issues as your translator will like go for the modern/evolved equivalent of Lord in the Ekiti dialect, and that is exactly what lx3as did. Also there are variations in the Ekiti dialects, e.g some Ekiti dialects are very close to the Ilesha dialect and some to the Kwara dialects, so a translation from 10 Ekiti people will not give you the same words; that is why Yoruba ajumolo was invented grin grin so that an Ekiti man can read what an Ijebu man wrote without getting lost!

There is nothing in indigenous land or its language called ABURO. It does not belong in the lexicon of the Niger-Congo family of languages. Same thing with AKOBI.

The narrators said Isaac (Aisaku) and Rebekah had fraternal twin sons Esau and Jacob. Esau was older and Jacob was younger but through some cunning Jacob cheated Esau and took the blessings reserved for the first born.

In essence what they are saying is customarily in that land first born sons are entitled to a spiritual rite, sort of a pass of the baton through the generations. The ritual involve placing of hand to anoint the son and invoke a praise for him. Beyond this spiritual practice a material practice also exist where after death the posessions and estate of the father is shared out and the first son has a first priority and largest share of that inheritance.

So Jacob cheated Esau out of both. It was possible with the treachery of the mother in favor of Jacob against Esau and the father, because in essence the father was also cheated in the act.

Ok. Now, check this out Alaye mi, they said Esau was red. grin grin

So what color was Jacob? In fact what color were their parents?

Thats the first tease. grin


Amongst light skin people red does not stand out as a distinct aberration. The white skin will call a red person tanned or dark...but never red!

It is only amongst dark skin that red stand out in contrast and will become a attribute or feature for identity.

Alaye mi, am i lying? grin


So Aisaku and his wife Rebecah were dark skinned, so was Jacob.


Jacob had a different name at birth. Jacob was a later acquisition post his successful deception. That birth name is lost.

At the cross-blessing where father placed hand on his head, AB-URo, the younger transposed to become firstborn or AKOBI and with that he acquired a new title and name....JAKOBI.

In fact later in life he acquired a new name and title and changed from Jacobi to ISRAEL (Asaraelu).

Another variation of spelling is Yakob. Jacob becomes Yakobi.


The transposition became a new custom and tradition to pass blessings to twins amongst the generations.

Hence in twin birth the Aburo becomes Akobi. Even though we clearly identify the chronology of birth as a time marker for Kehinde (the late arrival) we still stick with our ancient custom of giving Kehinde his entitlement and bring Taye behind him as Aburo.
...........



Interesting! Vowelising the Paleo Hebrew consonant root for 'Jacob' yields 'oYaaKWoBi' which when 'iparoje' (contraction) is applied will be shortened as 'Yakobi' giving us how the modern 'Jacobi' came about. I believe his 'akosejaye' gave birth to his name; Rebecah went to 'enquire of the Lord' about the babies struggling in her womb and was told what would happen. Jacob living true to his name took the birthright clean off the 'akobi' (Esau), making him one 'who surpassed/overtook the firstborn' (oYaaKWoBi).

If one vowelize Hebrew root word, does not necessarily give you a Yoruba meaning but to vowelize the Yoruba alphabet's makes it more intriguing. Take for instance, there is an ancient Hebrew word called Reish/Resh is represented by a picture of a ‘HEAD'. This head is represented with one of the alphabet which is Hebrew letter “ ר " for "resh", and letter “ R" in English alphabet. Its comparison with its Yoruba's interpretation of letter, ‘R' as Ri— and understanding its evolution to ‘ORI', is beautiful to behold ........

You vowelise not the root word but the root consonants, and that is what you did in your example. Paleo Hebrew is all consonants (represented by hieroglyphics), and so was arabic until the 8th Century.

You are missing the point which is that the 'Jewish' have taken on an identity which is not theirs. (Try reading 'The invention of the Jewish People' and 'The Thirteenth Tribe', to start with). They took on the identity of a people displaced from their land by War and persecution. The 'Jews' admit they are no blood relations of Israel; they are converts. African Americans are testing their haplogroups and some results are linking to the Yoruba with Haplogroups identified as being of Jacob's descendants.

Try this: The Igbos are recognised as being 'Jews' by Israel. Now apply your 7 questions to the Igbo. Now apply the same 7 questions to the Falasha Jews of Ethiopia, majority of whom were evacuated to Israel.
