Nama seems to speak Ewondo with a great French and Chinese mixed dialect which makes it more interesting to listen to him❣ By the way... Loved that he sang a little bit at the end and he looks like a nice famous model. 😊
I was going to say that I heard French and Chinese there (at least tonally). I wasn't aware of any other tonal language families except the Chinese languages
It's not Chinese accent, but Niger-Congo Bangu. It's a tonal language, so I can see why you'd think Chinese. But the cadence is definitely West African Bantu.
@@soso694 looks like Chinese character on the wall behind him. Perhaps he actually knows Chinese as well. Affecting his overall accent. His tones actually sound closer to Vietnamese. I’m no language expert. Just observation.
@@fitnessforbeginnerswarrend2271 Thanks. I have also been trying to find material for Fang because I am very interested in Equatorial Guinea and Gabon. I shall continue my search.
I hope that iiiiiiiiii is not a part of the language. I see this man do not use the language as enough in his daily life. I hope that all the people are not same.
Nama uses this language every day in his daily and working life. Our videos are not scripted, as we hope to show how we naturally use our languages. Across language, we punctuate our speech with filler words - in English they are often "um" or "uh", and so on. Thanks for watching, and hope this helps explain! :)

@@lianacurry-desalas2565 there are many in Africa and the Americas, e.g. Chinanteco
I picked out the French too, fascinating to hear the loan words pop up here and there

Very interesting tonality; the tones almost sound contoured. Thanks for sharing! God bless
Beautiful sounding language!!
From an ewondo ( kolo beti ) speaker i just want to say « Abou Ngang a medzang » . Meaning : thank you my brother ; merci mon frère ( in French ).
Hello, are you able to transcribe what he's saying? :)
hello friend can you translate "the man who dwells in the presence of YHWH"
Ewondo is on my list of languages that I would like to learn, if only there were a grammar and dictionary available, and some pedagogical material.
Sad but that’s the case for most african languages, even many of the most widely spoken ones.
@@nazarkgb1 Indeed. But it does surprise me, given that Ewondo is so widely spoken.
Ewondo is a part of the Language Fang ! We have fang dictionaries so you can tap FANG language and you will find it !!!

zabaanshenaas u will find ! Where are you from?
I love the visuals in this video. But is anyone able to transcribe what he's saying ?
It’s sound like Haitian Creole and I always wanted to hear the difference between Haitian Creole and African languages like Ewondo
Hearing an African tonal language really makes me thinks it's an Asian language but it isn't! It sounds beautiful
Most African languages are tonal
Or you Asian languages sound African
@@MrLionLC I said it makes me think of. I didn't say who sounds like what. Multiple languages have tones.

This man looks like my son's father! Who comes from Haiti. And is Canadian.

He speaks in a French accent
Abui Ngan
This language related to Tamil language.

He looks a little like a young Eddie Murphy. Much better singer though :)
