Extraordinary! Very similar to Kirundi and Kinyarwanda.
You can communicate with Luhyas without an inteprater. Just a few sign language
That is a whole book of new words in Kifuuliru you have outline, Ps. Nyangela. Thank you! And indeed, most of these words are similar to our Kenyan Luhya language. I can understand most of them. Historically, Bantus (of Kenya) are said to have migrated from the Congo Basin. It all makes sense now.
By the way, how big is Kifuuliru language? Is it widely spoken in Congo?
Woow! More closer to Luhya subtribe Called Kisa, very very close

We need more research and studies to find out who we really are, where we come from. The love we so lack between us, can start from there! Thank you.
The connection between our languages is beyond amazing. If we had real leaders of the people. We could create a kind of United states of African.
These similarities tell the story of how we the Bantu evolved indeed. Keep it up girl

Hello my beautiful sister ❤
Hello 😊
I have always thought that Caucasians got most of their words from Egypt , hidden knowledge.
But I have always thought the French monde is from Bantu for person, and the word Bantu seems to be "A GROUP OF YOU I.e. people in French BanTu.
A person in shona is munhu. Plural is vanhu
In luhya; person is muntu , people; Bantu
10 persons we say " Bantu likhumi"
Bemba and luhya are similar actually 68% . They talk like wanyore
Yes Patrick, the Abanyole speak like this
The bemba speak very close to Luhya Wanga as well.
I noticed that. You're very right
I also noticed that
In Luwanga, book is eshitabo
In kimeru Kenya is ija. Child is mwana. Person is muntu.

IN VENDA(south africa)
clothes= zwiambaro/nguvho
to come=uda/ida/idani
child=nwana
person =muthu /Vhathu(people)/vhathu vhanzhi(many people)
today=Namusi/duvha
soil=mavu/mutavha
rain =mvula (mvula ikhouna-it is raining)

food=zwiliwa
i am hungry=ndina ndala
😊..I think VENDA and SHONA are brother and sister.
@@DanteL007 true from the same pot: venda ,shona ,tjikalanga,kalanga ,kilobedu,
Actually the word should be lelo in luhya but pronounced as lero because in luhya vocabulary "r" means "l"
Isukha say lelo for leo, today
Ooh yes! 😊. Some say it the exact way "lelo" while others say rero or lero
😂😂😂 I thought it was only us Zulus who had issue with "R" we actually don't have "R" & we pronounce "L" instead and now seeing other languages 😂 singabandawonye(we are from one/same place)
Umwana same Maragoli ❤
Actually, I noticed Maragoli is the closest
Imfula ileloka
In isiZulu is ingubo😅
In the Sesotho language from South Africa
Diaparo - clothes. Diaparo comes from apara ,to wear clothes. Rwala is to wear a hat , shoes and gloves.
Ngwana - child
Motho - person
Kajeno - today
Pula - rain
Pula e yana - it is raining
Ho ja - to eat
😂🎉 umuntu in isiZulu is umuntu

Kumbe the Isukha use the "L." I have also heard some Wangas say lelo
In shona clothes is nguvo.
@@forbeschiromo1347 Or, hembe or zvipfeko..😊
Luhya and Lugishu is same
Hi Isaiah. You are correct. I tend to understand 80 % of Lugisu. It's the intonation that is different.
The Bemba are Marachi's. Nabamachi
