Abourdin

In the Akan language, "abourdin", means expensive and is used when something is of high value. Abourdin is a compound word comprising "abour", which means rock or stone and "din", which means solid or hard.

When you go back in history when stone carvings were prominent. You really needed the very solid and hardest rocks and stones to ensure that the monument or carving will last for thousands upon thousands of years. "Abourdin", solid stones or rocks, therefore, became synonymous with expensive, high-value, or prized assets in time and in history.

The very hardest of rocks or stones, "abour din", expensive, prized, high value.

Words in the English language originate just about from every language you will find in the world. Tamil, Sanskrit, Hindi, African languages, European languages etc etc etc.

A Pseudo Language will also Bear Pseudo-knowledge

So it is easy to formulate nonsensical ideas and theories such as evolution, dinosaurs, space-time, space fabric, time travel, speed of light etc.

The English Language is a Pseudo Language.

A language composed of other languages cannot be the authority on any subject matter, especially history. A pseudo language will also bear pseudo-knowledge.

In this thought-provoking song, Nas poses a question. "Who made up words?". He poses what looks like a basic question but is truly profound. Do you know the origins of words in the language you speak?

Can you prove the etymology of any word in the language you speak without the need for an obscured book of etymology? Language is truly a unique entity.

Origins of the word MUTATE.

Afrikan languages are characterised by two or three words (sounds). One such word is "te". Te, in the Akan language, is the root and origin of the English word, tear. They all mean the same. In Afrikan languages, when we repeat a word, we are emphasising it.

Te, to tear or break, separate etc.

Tete, to tear or break into several pieces.

Mu a te, when you have a string, a rope, thread or a piece of cloth and it breaks into two, it is mu a te.

When this same string, rope, thread or cloth breaks into several pieces it is, mu a tete, and from here originate the English word "mutate".

Do you know the origins of words and language? Can you prove the origins or words in the language you speak?

Tokro or grotto?

Tokro in the Akan language means a hole, (maybe not its actual meaning). It is an interesting word comprising two different words from two different languages spoken in Ghana.

To (tor) means mountain in the Ewe language. Kro means a town or settlement in the Akan language.

"Tokro", will therefore mean, the mountain town, the mountain city or the mountain settlement. Settlements built into mountain ranges. This could be natural or man-made.

To kro. From here comes the English word grotto. To kro, becomes kro-to and eventually becomes grotto with the letters K and G just merely interchanged.

Merely altering the SPELL of a word does not change its sound or source.
  • Brittani (Brittany, Britain)
  • Saxoni (Saxony)
  • Tuscani (Tuscany)
  • Italiani (Italian)
  • Romani (Romanian)

Language or words are first and foremost sounds. Language is not writing. Writing is deception and merely altering it, will not change its original sound or source.

The term "ni" is prevalent all throughout Europe, but there is no European language, that this term can be found?

Matriarchy is a Natural Order

All the original cultures lived in accordance with natural laws and cycles and Matriarchy is a very natural order. All of the animal societies are matriarchs; ant queen, queen bee etc.

Female lions stay in the same clan for life. The genetic makeup of a lion clan is all maintained by female lions. The same line of descent from one great-grandmother.

A child defaults to the mother. It is very easy to establish the original and ancient cultures of the world and the ancient and original cultures were all matriarchs. A natural order of things.

"Ena" or "Na" is your Mother.

In our cultures, we trace our lineage through our mothers, grandmothers, great-grandmothers etc.

Ena or na, a feminine noun. From here comes, Colombiana, Mexicana, Fijiana, Dominicana, Sultana etc.

Our Afrikan languages like cultures formed the foundation of the world's languages (and cultures) long before your history books were written and revised.

Ena, your mother.

Language. Your Only True Link

Language existed before writing. Language existed before books. Language existed before the idea of curriculums, schools, uni etc. Language existed long before your history teacher was born.

Language, like, culture is far more truthful than all of the above combined. It is your only true link to your past and future, not some history books.
