The Igbo sounds more singing like or romanticized. Yoruba sounds more like its to the point and without no extras attached 😂 Although i don't understand my Brother or Sister, i think it was cool 😂 👍🏾 Myself, African American and my highest percentage on dna test said Nigeria with (Igbo) next to it. I'm 40.4% ✊🏾❤
@@daveo2431 I thought that was the dialect I spoke but some words like obi and oliseh etc I hadn't heard used to describe those particular words We use igwe, eze, chi, chukwu etc
@@chideraalexanderdex547oh, I'm not sure, I only said standard Owerri because I know how to distinguish it from other dialects by their spelling, for ex. mmiri vs mmili, oria vs oya, ekele vs ekene. I think in your situation, it's not a matter of dialect but what kind of leader you have in your town; some have obi, some have eze, but I think you can refer to both as Igwe. I hear people say Oliseh around me too, even when they spell it Olisa. Probably Imo because sometimes they shorten their sounds with their mouths lol
@@daveo2431 wow, you are telling me a lot I didn't know If there's anything else you feel you can add please do before I ask questions because this is really really fascinating I had never noticed any similarities prior
Fascinating that there is a shared Linguistic factor which could mean common ancestor that diverged thousands of years ago. The question is why do these 2 groups visually look different from each other?
Yoruba and igbo are both in the west benue Congo branch of the Niger Congo family. It is in the yeai cluster of the volta niger branch along with edo and akoko. But they split quite a long time ago that they really only share the most basic vocabulary. So body parts, God etc
both those languages are related to the East African language LUO. IN LUO EAR IS ITI AND THE NOSE IS UMI. I speak it fluently. said to be part of the tribes of Israel
@@marquismackins9776 Actually, there was a paper published last year that stated that Niger-Congo speakers didn't arrive in West Africa until about 500BC(or 2500 years ago) from East Africa. Mostly pygmy types inhabited western parts of Africa.
These two languages sound like siblings who don’t agree on nothing 😂
That's because they descend from the same ancient culture in modern day Benin
You are so right, they are siblings
That's what I was thinking XD
Basics 😂
Because they split way too long ago to be mutually intelligible

Thanks for watching
@@Afrolangi You already know! ✊🏾👍🏾
I'm still learning Igbo language
King is igwe
KIng can also be Eze, it depends on what your dialect calls it.
Ofe mmanụ and oyamuri 😂😂
Love you guys ❤❤😂
Absolutely fascinating
What dialect of igbo is that
This is just Central Igbo (mainly used Igbo), probably standard Owerri form.

@@chideraalexanderdex547Someone else said Obi doesn't mean king but palace. So maybe that's why...

THE KIND OF SOUND SIMILAR

I read somewhere that about 11 thousand years ago

They can't be Israel when they were in their respected territories thousands of years of Igboland and Yorubaland before the birth Adam in 4004 BC.

@Allah_Loves_Forgives_and_Saves the etymology of the words is what we are reffering to. ALL PRAISE TO THE MOST HIGH GOD OF JACOB.
Luo is in the nilo saharan language family. Igbo and yoruba are in Niger Congo.

Obi is not king in Igbo .. rather Obi is palace...king is Igwe
Close enough 😂 Or king is also eze...
What of Obi of Onitsha. Obi of Agbor, Obi of Umunede
It depends on your dialect, for some other people it means king.
They wont teach you this one, rather anything that will uphold division
😂❤❤❤❤❤❤
