I'm glad that you're learning something! But Mandinka of the Gambia has some features that are arguably older than those in Maninka of Guinea -- I wouldn't say that one is more diluted than the other necessarily :-)
Thanks a lot for this video and your channel. 10 years ago I spent one and half years working in Guinee: N'Zerekore, Faranah, Kissidougou, etc, etc and especially my beloved Kerouane where I spent most of my time... this video brings me many nice memories. Thanks a lot, keep up the good work and vive la Guinee!!
You're welcome, Javier! :-) Thanks so much for the nice comment and for sharing a bit about your own connection to Guinea. I spent some summers in Kankan, but unfortunately, never visited your towns. Someday! I ni ke han!
petite correction "si"= nom de famille et "Djamoun"= Laudatif. Par exemple Conde est mon nom et Tamoura ou Kassawoura mon djamoun. N'se ou m'ba est employé pour repondre aux salutations et dans le cas de celebration d'un merite. Par contre, on repond "m'masoron" ou "môbalou" pour repondre aux compliments liés aux patronymes. Quand on dit par exemple " I Condé" un malinké répond " masoron ou môbalou"
Merci pour la précision sur "si" vs "jamu" :-) Je pense que tu voulais mettre le commentaire sur la vidéo suivante, non ? C'est dans c'est là que je parle de comment échanger les noms et se présenter, etc : ruclips.net/video/uIGxGwyjoKo/видео.html Par contre, pour ceux qui est de "N m'à sɔdɔn" et "Mɔɔbalu" -- c'est un sujet que je n'ai pas beaucoup encore aborder pour le maninka :-)
Love your teaching style. Thanks for this.
You're welcome! Thanks for the kind words :-) Keep me posted if you watch other videos in the series!
Am really learning from the Gambia. I think our mandinka is so much diluted but this is the real one, thanks.

By any chance are you a Fulbrighter?
Hi Timah! :-) Actually, I was a Fulbrighter back in 2011-2012, but in France, not in West Africa. Why?
We would say áhu ni sohoma🥰
I ni ke! À fɔɲa ka siya!
In the Gambia our mandinka is bit different from the that of Mali 🇲🇱 and Guinea
Yes, that's true. Linguists normally refer to the Senegambian variety as "Mandinka" and the Guinean and Malian varities as "Maninka" :-)
I want to learn this language as i like the malian empire.
Cool! Yes, the so-called "Mali Empire" is very interesting! The name in the language itself is "Manden" :-)
Akele Fama Di ( It's been a while).
I ni fama! :-)
Inike kosebè!
Nba! I ni ke, Lelia :-) Part 2 of greetings is coming soon!
Ini baara Adama Diallo
