Everybody knows that King in Igbo is Eze and Ezer in Hebrew. So, i went looking for the meaning of Prince in Igbo. There were many definition but one stood out as credible becos it was a single word, unlike others that involved joining two words such as Nwa-Eze etc. After discovering Prince meant Isi in Igbo, I was curious as to its meaning in Hebrew. Prince in Hebrew meant Nasi. I keep finding correlation between Igbo words and Hebrew words. They are often so closely spelt or pronunciation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasi_(Hebrew_title) http://www.balashon.com/2016/12/nasi.html https://www.indifferentlanguages.com/words/prince/igbo Ngozi123, Amarabae, Ezeagu, bigfrancis21, Cheruv, pazienza, Abagworo, AjaanaOka |

hammerF: 'Prince' in Hebrew is 'nasich' (similar to the "ch" sound as in the word 'cholera'). We might be Hebrew and we might not be Hebrew; I think that the only conclusive way to find out is to conduct some DNA tests. 1 Like |

Ngozi123: Yeah! Nasich means Prince, unfortunately my research from wikipedia gave me a shorter version. U have to copy the entire link to find the page. I read somewhere else that, "Hebrew nasi' is the title given to the chief of a clan or tribe in the period before the monarchy". So Nasi is old Hebrew whereas Nasich is somewhat new term. http://www.balashon.com/2016/12/nasi.html
