yorubakid: There is no such thing as Ezeh in Igbo. Ezeh is a corruption of an Igbo name. All Igbo names end with a vowel and not a consonant. The adding of consonants such as the “h” is a meaningless practice that some people have misguidedly undertaken, lately. Why add the “h”? Does it make the pronunciation of 3 letter names such as “Eze” or “Ibe” any easier. The earlier we stop that, the better. The rest of your examples are correct. |

wordcat: Homeboiy:He was criticising the guy that there is nothing like Ezeh. Don't read meanings into his meanings. I wasn't talking about meanings but that there is something like Ezeh. FallenShitHole:I know him up to his father's house in Uturu and know his 82-year old father answers Ezeh. I don't see Ezeh having a different meaning from Eze but know that people answer the name. |

BKayy:When you give example to back up your point, be sure that your examples when analysed doesn't counter your argument. For the name "MHMD", which is an Arab name the correct form is Muhammad, bkos in Arabic language there are only three vowels viz a, i, u For the name "’BRHM", which is a Hebrew name, Abraham is biblical Hebrew bkos unlike modern Hebrew, biblical Hebrew doesn't have v consonant For the name "YSHW‘", which is a Semitic name, Yeshua is Aramaic(the Hebrew form is Yoshua). Jesus is the Greek form of Yeshua, kos Greek doesn't have the sh sound, and all Greek names must end in s, which Latin also borrowed too. |

chiefobdk2: No really. I have listened to Igwe Orizu pronounce his name. He said 'Ohizu'. You Nnewi indigenes(espescially those sojourning in Lagos) should pay more attention to what is left of your old tongue and preserve it. |

Usonkwu: You don't know what you are saying neither do you hear clearly what he is pronouncing. Even Theresa Onuora is from Nnewi south, Unubi to be precise. It is Orizu not Ohizu. The r factor is there as even their cultural organization is Nzuko Ora Nnewi and not Nzuko Oha Nnewi. Stop talking nonsense. |

Usonkwu: Nnaa, with time you might discover that it is not everybody you should engage in arguments on this platform. Some know next to nothing about what they are saying, but will argue and fight with you who are actually far better informed than them on the subject. Much of Anambra South actually uses 'h' instead of 'r' in many words, in their original dialects. It is the rise of Onitsha dialect as a prestige dialect and a dialect that came to stand for sophistication and advancement, that led to many communities that fell within the orbit of Onitsha re-writing and sometimes even mispronouncing words to conform with the 'Onitsha standard'. Apart from Orizu being Ohizu in the Nnewi dialect, I have been informed by a man from Uruagu-Nnewi that the name of the quarter is actually Uhuagu when pronounced in the dialect of the Nnewi people. The nearby town of Oraeri is also pronounced Ohaehi by the older generation. Theresa Onuora's surname is Onuora, but going by the fact that she comes from Unubi, near Nnewi in Anambra South, I won't be surprised if this is yet another example of 'Onitshanization', and it won't surprise me if the name in true Unubi dialect were Onuoha. |

Usonkwu:He is an Aboki. Everybody knows him here. His own mission on Nairaland is to instigate statetism among Ndigbo by claiming Anambra but when matters like this arise, he gives himself out because it requires deep understanding to participate in. Almost all of Anambra South use "h" instead of "r" |

Usonkwu: Lol Dialect mbok, I am telling you that you should listen clearly next time. You might have condition your ear to Ohizu but it is Orizu. Moreover many aside them also answers same name. You are really wrong on this one. It is more saying they will say "Otu ihe ahu "instead of their dialect " ofu Ife afu" You are making loads of mistake and stop arguing with authority on this issues. |

fergie001:Please, you people should not confuse yourselves with spelling. Let me explain with examples 1. Awkuzu---Ọka Ụzụ 2. Orji----Ọjị̀ 3. Ezeh--Eze 4. Udeh--Ude 5. Nzukor--Nzụkọ 6. Amawbia---Ama Ọbịa 7. Ubah---Uba Do you people get where I am driving at? Unlike Onuora and Onuoha, the pronounciations of what I listed above are the same just that spelling differed. The difference in spelling is as a result of how well the writer knows the Igbo language. Technically, it is very rare for a consonant to end Igbo word. Let me explain further. Look at the names below and notice if there is any difference 1. Onuoha---Onuohah 2. Onuora---Onuorah Any difference in pronounciations of the two dialects? If "Ezeh/Ezeh" being the same in all dialect is to be written in Igbo Language, the spelling will be "Eze" So Ezeh, Ubah, Udeh are all wrong spellings. cc Homeboiy, wordcat and Fallenshithole |

Usonkwu:No it not about the etymology of his current moniker. He is the same person as Juliusmalema, Osagyefo and other countless monikers he uses to preach statetism, anti self determination and Pro APC in Igboland. I think his employers believe that if Ndigbo are not united that they will remain in Nigeria like others. 2 Likes |

It is an illustration to show that I can add "h" to the back like other Igbo names with wrong spelling like Ubah, Ezeh, etc and they will sound the same as the one with correct spelling like Uba, Eze etc 2 Likes |
