Will English take over French (and everything else) in Africa ?
Просмотров 1,2 тыс.5 месяцев назад
A season of changes is sweeping over Africa. Many countries are envisaging turning to English rather than French as a second language. In 2023, Mali and Burkina Faso made their national languages their official ones, relegating French to the status of working language. But what about the African languages themselves?

AFRICA: How the French imposed their language on the continent (English Version)
Просмотров 4725 месяцев назад

Is Arabic a dead language? The reason Arabs don't speak MSA

A dead language is defined as a language with no native speakers. This would make Modern Standard Arabic one. However, does this assertion make sense with regard to its historical development?

Learn to read Arabic in 10 minutes (Mnemonic tricks examples)
As an Amazigh myself ( METALSA north Morocco ) I think it was a combinationof factors like this video stated but they forgot to mention the biggest factor ; Its the language of God. Allah chose this language so honouring it is honouring Allah and thus ensuring a good afterlife. Strange that they did not explore this point in the video. Its the number one reason.
I am berber/amazich from Nador region Born in Amsterdam living in Canada, and everyone speaks berber in Nador
Great work
I'm arab my tribe is arab I'm north African I've never been arsbised I'm simply and proudly arab❤
The Berbers are semitic as well! Just like JEWS and ARABS derive from one people... the Berbers originate from the same people. YOU ARE NOT SPECIAL! Deal with it!
Mamma mia l'Africa è bella davvero.
What a revisionist take on the history of BLACK North Africa. Arab middle Eastern Muslims invaded North Africa, destroyed Black North African civilisations, r@ped the Black African women, castrated Black African men, enslaved Black Africans for 1, 400 years and took over Black North African. If you think all these Arab Muslims you see in Algeria, Morocco, Libya, Tunisia, Sudan, are indigenous to Africa, then you must be either dumb or a convert to mohaMADen
Bad video : > 1 we are not berbers, but amazigh > arabs is a culture, not an ethnic, not a religion, you can be amazigh and arabs culturally.
They didn't became arab they just adopted the language
We Moroccans have a lot of different genes as so many nations have tried to invade us or trade with us.I am a proud Moroccan with islam as my religion.
This video is NOT about genes. It is about language. Nothing more, nothing less.
It was the Amazigh dynasties that introduced and promoted the Arabization of North Africans. The reason they are so open to Arabic is primarily religious. Genetically speaking, all modern North Africans, whether Arabic-speaking or Amazigh-speaking, are 80 to 90 percent native Amazigh, with the remainder divided between Iberian, Italian, and Sub-Saharan African ancestry.
Amazighs are ancient Arabs who moved from the peninsula to North Africa way before the tribes who moved after Islam. It's kind of cousins remeeting each other.
@@Burawi exactly ..you sumerized history in two words....bravo.
This channel seems interested in the demise and disintegration of the Arab world
As an amazigh from morocco (zenata/senhaja) i can say we preserved our culture and language. The only thing that we have gotten from te Arabs is the Islam الحمدلله.
We didn't we're here....Moroccan amazigh here 🇲🇦
I am Kurdish, thank you very much for everything
Probeer geen berber te zeggen. Het is amazigh amazigh amazigh oke. Thank you ❤
Are you drunk.?? Ik ben amazigh en blijf amazigh en ben trots heel trots
Free Kurdistan ❤
YES i am maghrebi, NOT ARAB!
We are not arabised but we are islamized alhamdulilah.
Arab invade, Romans late Ine and Christianize. Racist language
Ils ont été colonisés....
The lebanese were forced to give up their language Aramaic and arabised too
I was surprised to hear from my tour guide that the amazigh were once jews
Azul! North Africa is still Tamazight, genetically and linguistically, I am one of them
In my eyes, illusions. Because the Kurds are not a unified people. More like gypsies separated into umpteen languages and cultures.
Excellent video, thank you very much
At 10:54, it is pronounce linney idge NOT line idge, thank you : LINEAGE is the spelling
At 1:45 it is spelt Phoenician NOT Pheonician
Thanks a million for video I love you Kurdish people
Tunisian arab here 🎉
Tunisian arab here 🎉
We are arabs north Africa
The notion that the tribes just willingly converted is such bullshit. The arabs didnt tolerate pagans. The tribes were coverted by coercion. Thats why it happened faster in the cities than with the nomadic rural groups, because they took longer to get to and were harder to coerce/control. People converted for survival and have been getting aggressively brainwashed and treated as second class in their own land ever since
Long live Kürdistan❤
Her bıji kurdistan ❤✌✌ kürt olduğum için kendimi çok şanslı hissediyorum❤
☪️ancer- ized.
The True Color is that Kurds are mixed people by Origin extremy of Irans inc Persiaarmenia and Armenians & Arabs.
Iranians wrote Arabic grammar... Great scientists from Iran were in the service of Islam... Islamic mosques and architecture are similar to Iranian culture before Islam in the Sassanid era, and you can see in Iran that Sassanid buildings have a similar design to Iranian mosques.
All you do is seperatism. I love my Kurdish brothers and we will live together in the same borders.
Kurmancî, Sorani, Gorani, Zazaki etc. are all branch of KURDISH and they are not different from each other.
The Kurds were divided into 4 parts and their language was banned. You are misinformed because you read the theses of the states that banned the Kurdish language. Even though there are dialects, all Kurds can understand each other.
Note: The ancient history of the Kurds stated in this video is largely false information and is just parroting the fake history compiled by the colonizers of Kurdistan (Kurdawari).
Let us not forget that the Kurds paid dearly to eradicate Isis. We are indebted to them
Its almost similar how pakistanis changed from being Western indians to now...hmm... Persian-afgan-arabs...!!..
Q: What does "Aliph + Reh + Daleh + Vaw" makes. (hint: the most beautiful and poetic language, and I am a native.. lol)
I think you mean Morrocans. Berebers get angry if you call them arabs.
Nous ne sommes pas arabes , mais berbères et musulmans
when ever i talk amazigh they always say we not arab i dnt know what are you talking about
