The YORUBA in CUBA: How YORUBA INFLUENCED Lukumi/Lukumi in Cuba - AbinibiHub

I EXPLAINED THE SIMILARITIES BETWEEN LUCUMI, CUBA AND YORUBA, NIGERIA. I dives into the fascinating connection between the Yoruba language of West Africa and Lucumí, a liturgical language used in Cuban Santería. We'll explore the historical roots of Lucumí, how it developed from Yoruba, and discover the surprising number of similar words and phrases that remain.
Join us on a journey to understand the enduring legacy of Yoruba in Cuba's cultural and religious practices.

[@OloRishaCreole504]

This is great to see such content being shared..To my understanding Yorubas from different ethnic groups came to Cuba

[@abinibihub]

Oh yes

[@kayoarawo6116]

The Yoruba has a very dynamic strong interesting culture second to none in Africa.That's why it survived everywhere even to this day by keeping its cuisine,fashion, music,entertainment and arts

[@abinibihub]

Yes.

[@LeolaSite]

I'm watching your channel for the first time. Good work. Lukumi is originated from yoruba word "olukumi" which means my friend or relation in my dialect which makes it yoruba word. Is a pity we've lost many yoruba words! I'm from Akungba - Akoko, Ondo State, Nigeria. The correct pronunciation is OLÙKÙMI.

[@abinibihub]

Thank you and I truly appreciate you.

[@abbeymore7657]

Thank you for exposing our beautiful languages and culture ❤

[@abinibihub]

Thanks for given me the chance.

[@bofloa]

Most Yoruba people in Cuba did not come directly from Africa, but from Trinidad, in the history of Trinidad some Yoroba arrived in Trinidad free so they were able to keep most of their tradition, then Trinidad was under Spain before british fought Spanish and took over, and it became British Colony.. many of the Yoruba then migrate to Cuba which is a spanish speaking nation.

[@abinibihub]

You are correct

[@abinibihub]

Tri and Haiti.

[@ManuelRodriguez-fb1qq]

Most do come from Africa.

[@abinibihub]

@ManuelRodriguez-fb1qq yes

[@tinnyone0303leo]

[@kingshine001]

We are getting too plenty in Ghana too we have Yoruba king too

[@abinibihub]

I will be visiting soon.

[@adesojiatoyebi8515]

Lucumi/lukumi is a corruption of "Oluku mi" which is an Ife word for my friend

[@abinibihub]

Yes. Things change over time. Spanish influence the change.

[@adenijisolomon9531]

@@abinibihub check your opinion pronunciation and sound sir. Oluku - friend |mi - me. (According to how they amalgamated and according to the story)
Your pronunciation:
Olu-ku-mi
Olu-God
Ku- (I cant wait phantom this adverb)
Mi-me
To avoid misinformation
I stand to be corrected though. We are all learning.
God bless you as keep promoting Yoruba culture 🙏🏾

[@abinibihub]

Is this not what I said in the video. We call it olukumi and they call it Lukumi. The o is gone just like we call Yoruba and they call Oruba because they don’t have y in Spanish language. ( Spanish Influence) I hope it’s clearer now.

[@Colai1313]

Not entirely true , OLUKUMI is was/ a town in Nigeria known for efun production , this is where many slaves were taken from and brought to Cuba .Google olukumi town Nigeria . In Cuba they keep the religion more secretive they do not post or record many ceremonies so they do not loose the ase . So all the real information you have to sit down with Cuban olorisha and babalawos to get . a renowned lukumi olorisha named Oba Ade Dayo has brought this information to light . And has lectures on Yoruba retention and rituals in Cuba

[@leemoneyvevo4728]

Plz what wrong with the voice from this video?

[@abinibihub]

The voice is okay. Kindly check your device.

[@Novikestory]

Are yoruba oyo people?

[@abinibihub]

Yes

[@RBB8S]

There is a channel on UA-cam yoruba lessons with Aderonke. See looks at the linguistic side of Lukumi songs. Not all songs can be traced to Oyo dialect.

[@abinibihub]

The General Yoruba Language that we speak in Nigeria is from Oyo.

[@AbisolaJune]

​@abinibihub are the yoruba people half Brazilian and cuban then?

[@venusonanuga8725]

No, some brazillian and cubans are yoruba
