The Nigerian guy used the wrong term, Rwanda didn't "steal" Swahili they joined the East African Community which has Swahili as it's official language so they decided to adopt it for better regional integration being that a majority of people in the regional block speak Swahili and they have a vision to form a federation, Swahili is the only recognized African language for official use by the African Union and is the most spoken language in Africa after Arabic or you could say the most spoken indigenous African language spoken in many countries e.g Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Mozambique, DRC, Rwanda, Burundi, Somalia and Comoros and South Sudan, you can't steal a language the language grows organically due to cultural influences
Salamu ndugu,
First African language spoken is pulaar/fulfulde language, spoken by us Fulbes : others calls us fula/fulani/fellata group.
We Fulbes, bigger nomadic group of herders of Africa, lives from Mauritania to Ethiopia.
I for myself, am learning Swahili, as i think it is a major language in Africa.
I like also, the fact that there is so much Arabic words in it. It helps me to keep my arabic.
Asante sana ❤
Mungu ubariki Africa, amina!

Unajua Swahili sasa, ni bada ya masiku tu utajua yote
Mungu atakubarikiwa ndugu yangu. From South Sudan 🇸🇸 (Sudan Kusini)
I agree with them. The English we speak in each country in Africa differs in every countries based on who colonized them, In South Africa we speak British English because we were colonized by Europeans. However our accents are influenced by our native languages. We borrow some Afrikaans words and we make them sound like our native languages.
You mean because we were colonized by the "British" ...Europeans are people who come from Europe, Britain is part of Europe..
I think when the Nigerian said stolen he meant the word Borrowed . Same thing happens in my language we usually say stole instead of borrowed since you are not giving it back. I always thought it's strange that people say words like "sachet" are borrowed, like they are giving them back 😂
It is not necessary stealing the language 🤣
Rwanda is now part of East Africa so we adopted Swahili as an east African language to help us communicate and trade better .
Peach is not Nigerian. It's not grown in Nigeria, neither is it common. So there is no local name for it. The English name remains the same, since it's foreign to us.
I am surprised. It's very common in the south of Africa, and its called mpentshisi in my language. I think maybe it has to do with the weather, because they tend to favor cool climate areas even here.
My dad grows different types of peaches grapes, plums and pears in our garden
Ocean is oshimiri in Igbo language (Nigeria)
Exactly
Oke oshimiri
In Africa... like in west Africa.. people speak each country language.. because they traveled from borders to neighboring borders.. this is how they learn different languages.. local and western.. eg.. French and English...
You guys made me laughed so loud that i even surprised myself ,when the lady from Egypt pronounced the Arabic word for Peach,The Demouchet Lady said " that sounded like something you don't wanna eat" that's so hilarious
That was hilarious 😂, especially when Dion said, "I need two of them h-(I don't know the word 😅)
Her name's Sierra btw
the igbo guy was wrong for the "Ocean". in igbo the word for Ocean is 'Osimmiri" or "Oshimmiri"
English accents is influenced by our home languages.
2:26 its not stealing probably he did a direct transtlation from a local language to English which means something different, its true Rwandese picked Kiswahili from neighbouring countries while seeking refuge.
Love my Africans ❤🇿🇦
Swahil was not stolen but adapted since the East African community. Now we have new national anthem and currency, and one Passport
In igbo Ocean is called "osimiri" and water "mmírí".
All languages grow by borrowing and grafting. English language also borrowed a to lot from Latin and French.
Ascent is inevitable as race and ethnicity. Scot, Welsh, English nationalities all within UK have their ascent. One can also guess correctly the city you are from based on your ascent e.g. Birmingham ascent is different from those in Liverpool.
Avant-garde is also another french name. Greetings from Togo 🇹🇬
Pascal looks familiar. He looks like the Nigerian guy that was interviewed with his family on the korean tv show "Charles my neighbour" (or something like that). He could speak fluent Korean and is very social in his school.
Demouchet sounds French as well.
Yes
Actually, you're right. It is French.
In sout africa

Arabic doesnt have p or v - so p is B and v is f - for example virginia is pronounced firginia
We have Arabic words for everything even the name lion we have 60 names for it but my girl was like living away from her language
Lol I need two of them hugg 🤮 😂 😂 😂 that was funny I like this

Most black american in la were from angola and congo region and they is a named called angola🇦🇴 prison cuz slavr from angola and in New Orleans the congo square slaves came from congo🇨🇩
in Zulu the ocean is Ulwandle...
Lewatle in Pedi
yep , we pronounce every p as B
like Pepsi we sai bebsi , park > bark / app > abb
yes lol bebsi - i have heard this
I enjoyed this video , I’m originally from kenya and I speak Swahili , I’m from two different tribes so I speak Kisii , and Nandi which are my parents language . growing up in America I learned Spanish .. but since we were colonized by the British I was taught British English .
French is used in many parts of west africa like how english is used in europe. Its a great tool to help communicate across cultural and ethnic lines.
Delightful people. Please do more language vlogs, guys.
What should we learn next?
Guys y'all crack me up with this french sounds more like creole😂😂😂😂.
Because the Somali areas were colonized between Italy, France and the britts, depending on where you're from the Somali dialects have different loanwords from different languages.
EG, If your from the south Somali you might say "forno" from Italian for oven but in northern parts you might say "ofen" from English oven, Somali has the same issue with P and V as Arabic, we don’t have those sounds in Somali so they become B and F instead.
I beleive the Somali word for oven is Tinaar, but havent heard it as much as the loanwords. Not sure what word the Somalis in Djibouti use. But yeah, there are traces of french, english and italian in somali language depending on where in the somali regions you are.
Yeah like in Eritrea and Ethiopia, when they say 'bye' they say "Ciao!" ; or use certain italian words for certain objects even though they may have their own vocab for those same words/
ocean in the 10 other South african languages
1. Afrikaans- osean
2. Sesotho- Lewatle
3. Setswana- Lewatle
4. Sepedi- Lewatle
5. Isixhosa- Ulwandle
6. Isizulu- Ulwandle
7. Isiswati- Ulwandle
8. Xitsonga- Lwandle
9. Isindebele- Ulwandle
10. Tshivenda- ( i dont know )
Rabbit in our local language is kalulu
Its not stolen like he said its just that countries in east africa use Swahili coz they are in the east african community.east africa has countires of kenya,uganda,tanzania as the original then Ethiopia,rwanda,burundi and dr congo sudan came in later
Ethiopia doesnt speak swahili - there is no swahili in the horn . THe horn has their own lanuages : somalia = somali, eritrea = tigrinya - written as well; ethiopia = amharic - written as well ;Swahili is spoken from Kenya on down
Hey the kiswahili language is official for kenya and Tanzania coming from congo boda south western Uganda Congolese kiswahili is somehow different from the one of these two countries but they can communicate
Like Rwanda Uganda is also adding kiswahili for official language as English since the political leaders are trying to make one East Africa kiswahili will work for all east african countries better than English
Water is mmiri, Ocean is Osimiri or Oshimiri in Igbo.
Swahili was originally from Zanzibar Tanzania 🇹🇿 then other African country started getting adopted from them like Kenya 🇰🇪 Dr Congo🇨🇩 eastern part of the DR Congo now other African countries are also start getting on it like Burundi, Rwanda, Uganda, Mozambique 🇲🇿 Zambia Comoros, even some part of Somali part of Comoros 🇰🇲 too
That’s not quite true. Kiswahili was born in the Swahili coast which also encompassed parts of present day Kenya, Mozambique and various other East African coastal countries.The language is just as much native to places in Kenya like Mombasa, Malindi and Lamu as it is to places in Tanzania.
When you start moving away from the coast inland I’d say your right that it was adopted but I think that applies for communities within Tanzania as well.
@@Zinzzi 👍🏽
@@Zinzzi bingo
Why are you deliberately misleading people here because of useless politics of competition btn Tanzania and Kenya?
That not true lol you do not know tue history of congo if you day we adopted it
15:31🤣🤣
Peach grow mostly in country where it very Cold and where it Snow 🌨 because 90% percent of Africa country don't get Snow 🌨.. its only Tunisia 🇹🇳, Morocco 🇲🇦, and south Africa, that have snow in Africa
it’s not only those, there also some countries in southeast africa with high mountains that get little amounts of snow & lesotho
northern Algeria is like Alaska of Africa too muck snow and cold ...
It snows in some in Namibia too and sometimes in Botswana. Basically snow is in the north and south of Africa interestingly
You mention snow in Africa and leave out Lesotho?
He meant borrowed.
So Rwanda didn’t steal Swahili, it because a lot of people from Congo and Kenya lives in Rwanda
Some of our pronunciations of English words are based on French too
When we say "come see" for come here, that's mixing English and French
Nope Swahili is language from Swahili people who are in Kenya Tanzania and Somali they go by a different name and different dialogue later was a language to connect different tribes together now it’s a language to unite the Great Lake East Africans together like Tanzania Rwanda Burundi Kenya and Uganda
Never stolen.. Kiswahili was mixture of coastal language and local dialect towards kiswahili
😂😂😂
No such thing as stealing languages - he means you adapted it from another country - but Swahili is East African
They don't each peaches 🍑 in the north🤔 what fruits do you guys have that we don't in the south?
Lol, that's not the North it's East and west Africa. They have different fruits that favor their hot climate. Mina I don't know what those fruits are called but I see them on CZcams.
Is normal they don't have a word for peach in Nigeria is actually west Africa because we don't have the culture of peach is like there is no English word for fufu
Tgevigbo guy is wrong
Mmiri is a small body of water or just water in a container
Miri n”ekwo ekwo is flowing water
But when it gets to big bodiesvofbwstet like seas and oceans we call it OSIMIRI or ORIMIRI depending on your dialect and what part of the Igbo tribe you hail from
Piano is not an English word, i think its borrowed from latin
Portugal
