Igbo voices; hidden wisdom from the ancient language.: Igbo Voices

If you are looking for the 'Rosetta stone' that unlocks the Igbo language; you can look no further.This book describes how Igbo words were derived from verb (or word) combinations. This type of word design is used in the Pharmaceutical Industry. For example, the Dihydropyridine class of Calcium Channel Blockers (CCBs) contain the suffix "-dipine" and are distinguished by their prefixes (amlodipine, nifedipine, felodipine, nimodipine, etc). There is little or no information about the etymology of Igbo words and the author only performs 'verb' descriptions using his knowledge of ancient and current Igbo culture. Igbo is linguistically a synthetic language. As a member of the synthetic language family, Igbo can be classified under Agglutinative languages. For example, the word for leg 'ukwu' contains the verb 'kwu' which is 'stand'-the leg is used in standing. The word for cup 'Iko' contains the verb 'ko' which is draw- the cup is used to draw water. Priest or UkoChukwu contains uko (planting) and Chukwu (God)- a Priest plants the 'seed' of God in people. Nwute ( prolonged agony), okwute (stone), Ite (Pot) and Ute (mat) contain the suffix "-te" which is 'prolongation'. Otu (one, 1), Otu (group), and Ntu (nail) contain the suffix 'tu' which is 'oneness'."..fascinating book.."-Rudolf Okonkwo, Iroko Productions/Sahara Reporters."..interesting book..."- Prof. françoise Ugochukwu, Igbo Specialist."..good..must read for all Igbo families.."- Chief Oscar Mokeme, Founder of the Museum of African culture, Portland, Maine."..Odogwu..it's ok..".
