axum:


Abo, is Somali. Not Arab.


Ummu means father in Arabic.

You are aware that there is more than one way to say father in Arabic right?

Radoillo:


LOL. Can we move this convo to your thread? I don't wanna trouble these nice people on their thread.

No, numskull, Meroe was not the capital of Axum. The capital of Axum was also called Axum. Meroe was the old capital of Nubia (also called Kush; and not to be confused with the language family called Cushitic today) located in N. Sudan. The capital was later moved to Napata.

My bad, I mean to say Kush, not Axum.

The people who are in that area look like Somalis/Ethiopians which is no surprise since our fathers ruled that whole area. Which is why you can see the resemblance today.

There are several ways to say father in Somali too. Aba is arabic I guess lol

axum:



Go look online. In Somali we say Aabo. It's not arabic, am semi fluent in Arabic.

Ok cool

Fulaman I want to be a moderator. Make this happen.

Yes it is, same as in the Fulani language and many other African languages, many ways to say one thing

Plz report the owner of the site to the Government. A Bantu has made you his slave by making you work for him for Free.

If you are true Fulani, like I know you are, you will act with quickness and teach the owner of this site that you are not to be trifled with

I'm a moderator to show a lot of bigots on this website that Fulani people are fair and kind people because a lot of people here dislike Fulani people

Surely there is a better way to uplift your peoples image without succumbing to slavery

Omarbah my Braaaader. When will I see the Islamic state of Nigeria? I hope its in2015.

axum:


My point is it was the same people all up and down the Horn of Africa. They all spoke same language family and thus when Axum took over the culture was the same as it were essentially the same type of people. Its like when Somalis took over Ethiopia. The DNA did not change we are the same people. Only thing we spread was Islam. But during that time their was no Islam.


The fact we took it over when it was famous, only means we were that much stronger. Even though a map of linguistics will show you that the people who are in that area look like Nubians, Bejas who resemble Somalis/Ethiopians. Bejas are Cushitc.

You make too many assumptions Axum, Nubia invaded Egypt at multiple times and sometimes even imposed one of them as a Pharaoh but that doesn't mean they were stronger.

Omarbah:

Well Kush never came back after Axum took it over. So that means Axum is stronger than Kush (and the land which it controlled Egypt), Axum even controlled Arabia.


So AXUM is Greater Than Kush

Lol let's build the country and strengthen its position in the globe first . You should do the same in Somalia. Your people are hard working , there is no reason why the clans can't seat and talk it through.

Well by the time Axum took over, Meroe was just living off of its past glory . It was nothing compared to what it used to be when it was the " Birmingham of antiquity".

Its not about clans. Its about the Federal Government vs Alshabaab.

Either way Egypt and Kush never came back while Axum lived on and morphed into Abyssinia until it declined when Somalis broke off and took half of Abyssinia. lol

History is strange.

1. Abyssinia controlled Arabia
2. Arabs from the Prophets faith asked for asylum
3. Abyssinia allowed them to live what is now northern Somalia
4. Arabs went back to Arabia and took it over where Islam flourished
5. Couple hundred years later, Somalis went to war and destroyed Abyssinia and took half of it over

axum:

Why does the diaspora support the Feds and end them? You do have the support of Kenya.
By the way, I like somali pirates, they are so gangster lol, gotta make those people pay for their fishing in somali waters.

OmarBah, bandam did you like the song? Hope all is well ada selli?

Mida Selli bandam. Mida yidi gimol ngol. I listen to them all the time now, thanks to you I am discovering more traditional songs. You know what I like about our people is that due to our presence in so many places, when some of us abandon a part of our culture, they can always look somewhere else to find it. Fulbe of guinea have been embracing modernism too much.

Woodi Sanne bandam, That (the bolded) I agree with wholeheartedly and it kind of troubles me ROFLLLL I just didn't say it out loud because I didn't want you to get upset . I think from Burkina Faso all the way to CAR, Fulani culture is well-perserved.

It doesn't upset me, lol I am well aware of it. Not too worried though, the last elections were an eye opener for many Fulbe that thought liberalism would make them less hated by other groups but it wasn't the case. Now it is common to see young folks listen to traditional music, even those living in cities.
What will revive Fulbe culture is the writing of the language that is being undertaken seriously. With it, poems and writings of our forefathers are made available to more people and it sure will change their behavior. Hey, isn't it how a cultural Renaissance starts ?! Lol

Now on the other side, those worried about modernism embrace a rigorous form of Islam, Wahhabism. It is growing fast in Futa.
Looking back, what affected Fulbe of Guinea the most was the destruction of their state. Many were so bitter that they left Futa altogether. Thousands immigrated out of the country. Plus the French never promote the region economically which lead to its depopulation. The only way to fix it is by rebuilding its economy, not so complicated.

Absolutely my brother! That's the right mentality for one to possess in order to revive their culture.

That's great information to know.

Radoillo:
Fulani and Touareg built Mali andSonghai and Ghana. LOL. Troll on, dude.
