Yorùbá Lessons with Adérónkẹ́
Canada
Приєднався 5 січ 2015
I teach for the preservation, promotion and appreciation of the Yorùbá language and culture in all its richness.
People of Yorùbá descent are all over the world, and unfortunately, many of us are not aware of our ancestry. The past was quite rough; the consequences of capturing, enslaving and colonizing people, stripping them of their clothes and identities, both literally and metaphorically, haunt our societies to this day. I consider my teaching a means of bringing a form of healing to people, inviting them to know more than they probably think they do about themselves and their ancestors, and welcoming them home. It's one of my assignments for my current incarnation.
My platform is for anyone and everyone who loves/appreciates languages and the beauty they contain, including the bittersweet depths of the stories they tell, when we use them for communication and survival.
Thank you for supporting my work

My hearing is not great. I can't hear the differences in the ways of pronouncing alphabet.

Wonderful lesson, TY !!
I thank YOU
You talk soo gloriously about communal living it has its downsides in a big way. It was not always harmonious
Another of African tribes would have treated lesser African tribes the same way the British did. Its human nature just that the British were better at it
But how do you expect the government of the day to run the administration? Taxes were required by force.

It'll happen if you commit to it.

can you just go to your point and stop beating round the bush
The videos should be subtitled into Spanish so that Latinos, mainly Cubans, would understand better.
You're right. Would you like to help me with that?
Thank you for this teaching

Hello, I'm in the process of translating Nigerian names (Igbo and Yoruba) of US sports stars for a US website. Even with your lesson, I'm still having hard time translating the Yoruba name: Adebawore. The best I can come up with it is Ade Bawo Ire which would be "The Crown how can it Grow? or :"The Crown How much a blessing?" Does this seem right or am I way off base?
i have primarily west african blood but i am african american, i started saying this at the end of my prayers/manifestations/affirmations etc and it just always made sense to me say despite me not even knowing what it meant yet. my ancestors are always with me ❤ even when i don't know it
Aya mi oja lati bi ibeji ❤
Iya, would you mind if I create subtitles in Portuguese for your videos?
That would be awesome! Thank you.
Thank you for sharing. What kind of ritual is it?
I just discovered your channel and I love it. I would just like to know if you could translate a song in yoruba in english please.. If not it’s okay 😊

Hi Aderonke, I hope you are doing well. Next month, our priestesses will be traveling from Brazil to Nigeria to perform some rites. They would like to bring gifts for their IFA family in Nigeria. As we recently had the honor of hosting an Osun priestess, we noticed some differences in what is valued by our cultures. Could you please provide some advice on gifts and presents that Yoruba women would appreciate? We want to ensure that our gifts are thoughtful and meaningful to our Ifa family. Thank you for your help!
Hello, Leo. Thank you for being so thoughtful. 😄 Anything given from the heart is a great gift; don't worry about it. ❤ Àyúnlọ, àyúnbọ̀, lọwọ́ ń yún ẹnu. I hope the priestesses enjoy their trip. Àbọrú, Àbọyè, Àbọṣíṣẹ.
You are doing well, iyalorisha
You are great
Where did they get a chicken and chameleon when there have not been any creation?
9:08p.m. Eastern Daylight Time Good evening Iya, may your Ancestors continue to strengthen you bless with healt, long-life, prosperity, happiness, Wisdom, Knowledge and Truth. May ALL Yoruba people embrace, maintain the Traditions and Culture of such an amazing Nation.
Your work is simply priceless! As Yoruba man, I learn everyday from your content, well done. On the topic of joining words and pronouncing them by shortening one of them for ease, wouldn't it be appropriate to introduce an apostrophe as in English language? In your example, "ni owó" would read "l'owó" while "yún enu" would be "y'énu" (I haven't figured out how to give letters a tail on a keypad yet, sorry!). It's how I visualize it. Thanks for the great work.
