Respect is one of the major aspects of yoruba culture So we use "ẹ" for people older than us,while we use "o" for people younger than us or our mate So in this case if you want to tell an older person "thank very much" you will say "ẹ se gán" while you tell a younger person " "o ṣe gan"

You meant to say: "Bawo ni mo se ma mo nigbati ma so ni tabi je ?
@necksonUtube5 жыл бұрын
You ask a very interesting question. The difference is very subtle. "ni" is more definitive, meaning that it is used to say that someone is in a particular role and there can be only that person in that role. "je" is used to associate someone to a position or a role but he/she is only one of several or many persons who play such roles. Let's take an example. To say "I am Robert's father", you say " Emi ni baba Robert". That role is yours and yours alone. You don't use "je" in that case. But to say "I am a student at Harvard Univ", you say " Mo je akeko ni Harvard Univ". Why? You're not the only student (=akeko) at Harvard. Note that the "ni" before Harvard is a different form of "ni", and it has a different to nation. This " ni" has the upper (or mi) tone, and it is a preposition fixing the location ( it is the translation for "at"). The " ni" that you initially asked about has the middle (re) tonation.

@@malcolmking5023 Not bad. But please note that unlike in English, in Yoruba, the adjective comes after the noun. This is the same in some other languages including French and Spanish. So, to say "the two answers", you say "awon idahun mejeji". Don't worry so much about the word "awon" yet; I'll cover that in subsequent lectures. The important point for now is that the adjective "mejeji" comes after the noun "idahun". Okay ? Keep learning; you're doing good. Ku ise o. O nse daada gan ni.

First of all, thanks for the video! We are new to the language and are trying to learn the pronunciation. We would like to know something really specificw: Does the 'do-re-mi' tones have 1 tone distance from each other? (1 tone from do-re and another from re-mi) or the 'do-re-mi' is here is just used to describe a base sound pitch, and lower one and a higher one, not really 1 tone from each other? How do you work with those tones when singing? Do you have to always respect this distance or does it change? Im not trying to mess up with you, In fact we are singers and our family runs a religious house which culture is based on lots of African countries and Yoruba is a base language from our origins(Umbanda and Candomblé). So, although we sing in portuguese, which is our mother language, we want to learn Yoruba so we may sing in Yoruba as well, and that's why this question is really relevant to me. Thanks in advance.
@necksonUtube5 жыл бұрын
I don't know much about the theory of music but here's what I can say. The tones, do , re , and mi , can be replicated and heard distinctly on musical instruments such as a piano by hitting consecutive keys on the instrument. So, if this means that they are one musical note apart, then I guess they are. Now, I'm not sure about the question of how ".... one works with those tones when singing.." These tones are just to help with correct pronunciation of the words, whether one is singing or just speaking naturally.
@lunaelily35155 жыл бұрын
@@necksonUtube Thanks! Actually I have just heard other fluent native people talking and the interval do re mi seems to not be the same used for 12 tons music, but indeed they have a relationship. Probably the idea of lower, middle and higher pitch was the one that is associated here. Further research needs to be done anyway, thank you! <3
