Yorùbá Lessons with Adérónkẹ́
Канада
Добавлен 5 янв 2015
I teach for the preservation, promotion and appreciation of the Yorùbá language and culture in all its richness.
People of Yorùbá descent are all over the world, and unfortunately, many of us are not aware of our ancestry. The past was quite rough; the consequences of capturing, enslaving and colonizing people, stripping them of their clothes and identities, both literally and metaphorically, haunt our societies to this day. I consider my teaching a means of bringing a form of healing to people, inviting them to know more than they probably think they do about themselves and their ancestors, and welcoming them home. It's one of my assignments for my current incarnation.
My platform is for anyone and everyone who loves/appreciates languages and the beauty they contain, including the bittersweet depths of the stories they tell, when we use them for communication and survival.
Thank you for supporting my work

Thank you so much for all that you do. Your videos are very helpful and insightful. I salute you.

This was phenomenal!
Brilliant segment 👏🏾 💐. Can you please cover some of the odus that spoke about the abnormalities in society and their possible causes?
I would like to know if you have the lyrics in Yoruba for the songs?
SPECIAL REQUEST IF POSSIBLE: AGBON_META.THANKS.
Sounds like a brazilian candomblé song for Exú Orixá
My love for this song is inestimable
ruclips.net/video/aLOJUQayzFg/видео.htmlsi=2ObqkvhB5FvbZer4 Beginning at 2:36 it's the afro brazilian version to this orin
Thank you so much!!
Hi Adérónkẹ́, Thanks for the video, it was awesome! We sing this Orin to Èṣù here in Brazil with some modifications and other minor sections, but they seem to be just variations. I've heard the Cuban version that you linked in the comment below, and here in Brazil (at least in my house), we use a different version. It's much closer to what you showed in your video.
Udu in my place means raining season
Ẹ ṣe gan-an!❤
Please dont refer tonthem as Afro-Cubans. Most Ocha/Ifa practitioners in Cuba are not black/mixed. And most black Cuban practitioners do not respect Yoruba Babalawo. I have heard this song in Brazil, but never in Cuba.
Ishonshon Abe ishonshon abe is on the begining of lavatory yes of course we sing that sing but has been modificated
This is incorrect.
@@ChuckMothaEfenNorris😂😂😂😂
Ishon ishon abe ishon ishon abe odara kolori lejo baba seme ishon ishon abe is the same dont be sturbborn 😊
Just bad pronunciate
Hi. I just discovered your channel. I must confess, your Yourba and English accents are both top notch and your explanation of the lyrics is just phenomenal. I was on a hunt for Yoruba channels to help my diaspora-born children to learn Yoruba when I found your channel. I'm now going to go and binge watch all your previous videos
I heard the song from Owomide Ifagbenusola. Thank you kindly for sharing the lyrics and breaking it down 🤝🙇🏾💐
Thank you my sister for this share. Unfortunately, i find it hard to follow your reasoning. i wish you prosperity and well travels on your journey. ~D
Orí Hùú
I'm deeply emotional about the sonorous effect and in depth of the song in Yoruba contextual meaning. Thank you for keeping the traditions alive!
Brilliant, Baba Sala and the Awada Group are very creative. Baba Sala RIP, a Genius indeed
The idea or concept is like the concept of kindness, and that it begins with peace of mind: our original self, which is a child of the creator!
Thank you for explaining the cultural and spiritual background. The analogy of someone asking the vegetables to slice themselves was perfect 😂 Hugs from Brazil.
Thank you
I agree with you, 'aje' isn't a witch but a sorcerer.
With all do respect, but the person that’s singing is not an Apkwon Omo Aña , she isn’t speaking the best Yoruba. I recommend you listen to the legendary Lazaro Ros Omo Oggun from Cuba 🇨🇺 is deceased now, but his orisha Orikis were the best songs for Orisha worship which is what we fallow.
How can I contact you I have an old recording I’d like to send u.
Aderonke you have shared so much knowledge with me. Ese oooo. Please what is the meaning of Oye in and of itself? I thought maybe raised position or worthy of praise or exclamation? Would love to know your thoughts
My parents Mr.Mrs, Akanbi Fafiyebi were still alive at this time, may their soul rest in perfect Peace AMEN Rest on baba sala😌
34:06 I am so grateful for the breaking down of such a powerful word! My son and I have been utilizing this word with limited knowledge, and it has been empowering! The increased knowledge and wisdom that you have released in the universe with this medium has further increased our understanding and love for the consciousness that is needed to thrive in these times! Thank you for the liberating thoughts and concepts that shine the light on positive living! We will truly vibrate on a higher frequency because of your contribution! ASE'! ASE'! ASE'!
I found your channel today and I just wanted to say I am grateful for this coming my direction
My hearing is not great. I can't hear the differences in the ways of pronouncing alphabet.
A o ni subu daanu, ni ase Eledumare...Amin.
Wonderful lesson, TY !!
I thank YOU
You talk soo gloriously about communal living it has its downsides in a big way. It was not always harmonious
Another of African tribes would have treated lesser African tribes the same way the British did. Its human nature just that the British were better at it
But how do you expect the government of the day to run the administration? Taxes were required by force.
🙏🏾mo fẹ́ lati gbọ àti lóye yoruba properly and not get embarrassed 🥲
It'll happen if you commit to it.
@ Adérónké̩ - Eku ise takun takun. O ese pupo Oluko wa. Great lesson as usual! What a coincident, I just heard Araba said it in this video clip posted today? ruclips.net/user/clipUgkxJjtjNH8RVjjQEmn5q1Br0CBUb7Vp5rp_?si=mYeuFDM-INifwR5N
Thanks. Keep It up. Teach us more.
Will do. Thank you for watching. 😁
Mo Júbà óò!! Ẹ ṣeun púpò!! Poderia trazer a tradução desse orin para lingua brasileira por favor? Àṣẹ óò
Beautifully stated.
Thank you! 😄
Me encantó.!!! Gracias.!! Sin embargo no entendí bien algo, se puede hacer individual o debe hacerse en comunidad??
Both.

Hi, Which is Ofeefee Yellow or Orange You said Orange here but everywhere else I have checked has shown Yellow as Ofeefee. Pls kindly confirm or give any evidence Thanks
can you just go to your point and stop beating round the bush
The videos should be subtitled into Spanish so that Latinos, mainly Cubans, would understand better.
You're right. Would you like to help me with that?
Thank you for this teaching
