    Arabic and Amharic are the top two most widely spoken Semitic languages. Amharic is the official working language of Ethiopia, an Afroasiatic language and one of the Ethiopian Semitic languages. It is spoken as a first language by the Amharas and as a lingua franca by most people in Ethiopia. Arabic, meanwhile, is a Central Semitic language and has official/national status Algeria, Bahrain, Comoros, Chad, Djibouti, Egypt, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Malta (Maltese Arabic), Lebanon, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, SADR, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Tanzania (Zanzibar), Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, and Yemen. Arabic is also the liturgical language of Islam and has had an influence on many different languages.

Here are samples of Somali DNA results from the Eurasia K=8 genetic database...I highlighted the Near Eastern column so you can see Somalis have lots of Near Eastern ancestry as well. The Sub-Saharan African column is on the far right. Somalis are like a near half/half mixture of Sub-Saharan African and Near Eastern DNA: ibb.co/hRsKMtS

Some Ethiopians are racist against West Africans, and I if would claim that ALL Ethiopians are racist against West Africans then I would be racist. Understand how racism works now? Let that Egyptian show love to Ethiopians without you interfering just because in your worldview ALL Arabs are racist. Also learn how to spell.

      dude the Sabaeans deites are derived from the Dravidians not the Ethiopians. The people of Saba' are from Imliq (Amorites/Amalekites/Hyksos) who were mixed with the Asiatics(Canaanites) who are the Dravidians and a people same as pure Native Americans (same type of culture and Im not referring to the lovely Turkic or mongolian people)
      the pre islamic deities of the sabaeans , phoenicians and nabateans are derived from the dravidians who are original Mediterranean and Sumerian people , one branch settled in the West the other branch went East (Sumerians) then to India via Southern Iran until they reached Northwest India , then trade connected them again for Southern India had strong trade relations with Nabateans, South Arabia , Rome and Greece
      There are two cushs and three nimrods
      Nimrudh (Nimrod) was the son of Kush (Cush) Ibn Kan'an Ibn Ham lbn Nuh. The same who ruled Babil in the days of lbràhim, the friend of the Compassionate www.soebratie.nl/religie/hadith/IbnSad.html < this is referring to the Dravidians who are original Mediterranean and Sumerian people they are Canaanites. They are asiatic cushites from canaan not cush bin ham
      page16 of prophets and patriarchs it says Arfakhshaad also had a son, nimrod bin Arfakhshaad whose dwelling was in the vicinity of al hijr
      on page 18 of prophets and patriarchs it says Nimrod was son of cush bin canaan bin ham bin Noah . he was the Lord of babylon and of Abraham,the Friend of the Merciful. < referring to the Dravidians
      one of the offspring of cush was nimrod the one who ruled tyranically in babylon < blacks and Abyssinians are from cush bin ham
      Zanj (Arabic: زَنْج‎, meaning "Blacks"[1][2][3]) was a name used by medieval Muslim geographers to refer to both a certain portion of Southeast Africa (primarily the Swahili Coast), and to the area's Bantu inhabitants.[4] This word is also the origin of the place-names Zanzibar ("coast of the black people") and the Sea of Zanj. < Wikipedia
      Quote"Attempts to match Nimrod with historically attested figures have failed. Nimrod may not represent any one personage known to history, and in reality is more likely a conflation of several real and fictional figures of Mesopotamian antiquity, including the Mesopotamian god Ninurta, the Akkadian kings Sargon and his grandson Naram-Sin (2254-2218 BCE), and Tukulti-Ninurta I (1243-1207 BC) of the Middle Assyrian Empire.

      Yeah, but they're deliberately choosing only words that sound similar the same or similar meanings. There are many more words that dpon't sound so alike or have similar meanings. They did the same trick with Hebrew/Arabic and a lot of other related languages.

    • @Emsyaz
      @Emsyaz 6 лет назад +7

      M Benyossef Of course not all words are similar because Amharic is an african language originally.
      However, Arabic had greatly influenced the language.
      Hebrew and Arabic on the other hand are sister languages. They originate from a common ancestral language. Thats why hebrew and arabic have more similarities than differences.

    As a Hebrew speaker who knows a little Arabic I was surprised that the only one I did`nt understand was Horse, all the rest I understood at least to the level of thinking that the 30 was 3 , like the Iraqi girl. This surprised me , especially as Israel has a large Ethiopian Jewish community and I rarely can pick a familiar word out of spoken Amharic, but that`s probably a lot to do with accent and speed of speech. Wow.

      Yeah when amharic was made (according to manuscripts) it was supposed to be a secret language that only few people knew about to avoid leaking of military info by spys (mostly cushitic and other semitic speakers) so they intentionally made it sound different ,and the language was formally called lisane negus (the tongue/ language of king) it was adopted by ethinc amharas which later on changed the languages name to amharic, most Ethiopians now adays can speak amharic (even tho they aren't all amhara) maybe the ones u heard talking were agews who are cuhsite

    • @girma13
      @girma13 3 года назад +1

      Isaac - yes Semitic has more than 5000 years history but studies show the diversification of EthioSemitic languages needed at least 5000 years and this timeline is near to the timeline for proto-Semitic. www.jstor.org/stable/41966122?seq=1
      Not all Semitic languages are found in the Middle East. In fact most of the Semitic languages are found in Ethiopia/Eritrea than anywhere else. Ethiopia occupied Yemen long after Semitic first appeared in Africa and then spread to the Middle East. The look of Ethiopians have little to do with Yemen. It amazes me that some mention Yemen when trying to explain Ethiopian civilization but the truth is the ancient civilization of Yemen was inferior to the ancient Ethiopian civilization.

    When you put on the subtitles in arabic regarding 3 and 30, the thirty in arabic letters read "Thalathoon" (with a waw) but you transliterated it to "thalatheen" (with a yaa'). Both ways are correct depending on the position of the word in the sentence. Great video! Love your content.

As if simply being American is not good enough or something. The only ones I see that do identify as simply American are usually white Americans. Maybe they are the most proud to be Americans. It looks like it to me because the non-white Americans all identify as something other than just simply American.
