EP1 - Learn Luo Language in 52 weeks start with greetings! - The 52 week challenge
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ธ.ค. 2018
- I want to teach my kids Luo within 52 weeks or one year (2019)! and enjoy while at it, you can learn with us as we move along.
EDIT: This is what we thought in December 2018. Its now March 2019 and we have since had numerous likes and comments. This has motivated us to continue producing more videos to help other people in a similar situation and also just for the fun of making videos.... hope you will look at our channel and sample the very many videos we have so far uploaded.

The Kenya Government should hire this gentleman to run a school on languages of Kenya .Language teaches culture and people from other tribes will then be able to understand each other and realise that in Kenya the more we think we are different the more we are the same . He is such a dedicated teacher . It cannot be cheap funding a programme like this yet he just goes on teaching probably for not much return other than the pleasure he gets from seeing other learn and improve.
Thanks for always supporting us. We are preserving the Luo language in this platform one lesson at a time 🤩
Yes I absolutely agree, in other countries in the world, for example my country Hungary, they should teach some Gypsy language and culture to every kid, and racism would vanish completely in less than ten years. But governments like to suppress minorities systematically because diversity doesn't meet the demands of the global economic powerhouse.
Language and culture is absolutely necessary! Let’s see what the future has🙂
@@LuoEnglishDictionary oh yeah btw I'm an amateur Hungarian language and culture enthusiast. I fell in love with the Nilotic culture and Luo seems to be the most accessible gateway to enter this realm.
This is so helpful! In Mabaan sub-Luo tribe, counting is numbers has grammar as wel. For example; number 1 is Cyal but when you describe something, let's say like One Luo, we say Luo a cyel. But other than that , here is how my counting is. 1. Cyel 2. Yew. 3 doog. 4 ŋaan. Or nguan. 5. D،ɔɔyi. 6. Wicyel.7 wicyeew. 8 wicdoog. 9. Wïcŋaan. 10 ịngyaakɛn. Means two handa. 2 hands are equal to 10. Thank you very much. Brother Brother Luo Sudan or S Sudan Blue Nile River Bordering Ethiopia
Kenyan American starting my journey with my mother tongue! Thank you for providing such an awesome lesson challenge.
Great! Let us know how it goes
She's young but already exhibits signs of great teaching skills. That usually requires patience, high intelligence and ability to be in the learners mind so as to steer it to the point. She shows all these qualities.
Ber ndi! I wish I could like this video a million times!!!!
Thanks for the compliment. Please go through the other videos in our channel and tell your friends about us. We really appreciate your support.
Very good! Let's keep our culture. Our language, our pride.
I saw this channel and got super excited!! Let the lessons begin!! :)
Thank you. Your excitement is not in vain😍😍. Our videos are now arranged in a playlist with EP1 through EP41.... we welcome all questions, comments and ideas.
I'm a Dinka and this sounds like our language. It hasn't been long since you guys left us😄
We should link up and compare what changed over the years you know 😃
I'm so grateful. I've longed to learn and speak Dholuo. Here I'm. Great discovery.
Heel erg bedankt voor deze filmpjes! Duidelijke lessen, prettig om zo Luo te kunnen leren.
Great discovery for myself and the children...!! Erokamano...!!
Erokamano. Please tell other parents like you that we exist. Children learn better when in a group (even if the group is virtual).
Fantastic platform for learning the Dholuo language. Incredible.
We really appreciate your feedback
I'm a Luo from uganda but i can understand almost all the words, in uganda we have difference tribes under the same luo with similar speaking,they includes: Acholi, Alur, Lango, Kumam, Jopadhola, all these Tribes speak LUO, In sudan we also have Acholi pajok and in D R Congo we also have Alur same Luo speakers ,let me show you the difference in counting numbers 1-10, Acel, Ariyo, Adek, Angwen, Abic, Abicel, Abiryo, Aboro, Abongwen, Apar
😜
This is great..am a kamba en trying to learn luo language for the love of my life...
Amazing! Explore our channel and surprise your love with mastery of Luo language
Would you come clear on your statement 'for the love of my life". Is it that if don' t learn luo you die?
Love of my life also means a spouse
@@LuoEnglishDictionary I am Luhya in South Africa learning from your channel Japuonj. Erokamano.
Thanks. Hope you become fluent.
Love this! I am a Luo relearning and this is a big help. Thank you!
We appreciate your feedback 🥰
Wow wow wow! I have been really longing for something like this. I look forward to learning Luo fully by the end of 52 weeks.
Thank you for the wonderful comment. We look forward to great engagement this 2019. Happy New Year
Good job Nique. Go gal!
I'm glad I found your channel. I am a Jamaican by birth but live in the US. I'm a retired US Marine. I can't think of a more fun and productive to spend my time than to learn and African language. I have learnt that the Luo and the Igbo tribes are quite similar; with the Luo well represented in Uganda. Thank you for a fun evening.
One day I'll share with the story of how the African slaves created there own language when they came to Jamaica.
For now, here is a sample
Inna Di Morrows (Jamaican Patois)
See you tomorrow (Translation)
and "Bless up" --- God bless you!
Now I get what I was looking for,kudos guys for your smart work
Just started learning with you. Am Luo but I need a little work on my language. Thanks for the video.
This is very good. Keeping the language pure through our children
We appreciate your feedback
I can also through you . Thanks for teaching
Very nice lesson teacher..Am Shilluk/cøllø from South Sudan. And I see a lot of simlarities in Counting here. Which is a good opportunity to understand luo language and learn more about it.
Thanks am in a dominated luo culture and now I am perfectly good in this language...I can give back to the society very well
Good to hear 👂
I am a Nigerian. But had a close friend from the Kumam tribe (a sub-sect luo tribe). I got so much interest in this language as a way identifying with my friend to the cradle.
Great work.
Thanks. I need to research more about the Kumam tribe 🤔
THIS is so good i practice everyday
Thank you guys. I'm trying to learn, good work!
You are in the correct place 😍

This is a cool way for your kids and spouse to learn Luo. Luo is a language spoken by the River-Lake Nilotes in East Africa (majorly in Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania). Former US President Barrack Obama's father was a native speaker of Luo. Lets learn together....
Could this also be Jaluo?

Keep up the good work!
Ee-ro kamano! ☺
Wonderful comment. We shall improve on our future videos. We appreciate your comment.
We have added the subtitles to this video and have ensured future videos have visible wordings on paper. As from March 2019, we are now trying our best to publish all our videos with sub titles.
Hello congratulations
Thank you so much for your videos! I would love if you'd give the direct & indirect translations. It would help tremendously
Great comment. We shall incorporate this advise in future videos 😍
This is really helpful🔥 I wish you had perhaps translated the greetings so a person knows exactly what they're saying to another?
Thanks for the comment. In the recent videos we have done exactly what you are asking. Enjoy!
Why are luos so well spoken and smart
Yes, sir. You are doing a good job promoting the language spoken by us southern luos whose native territory straddles the eastern shores of Lake Victoria in Kenya and Tanzania. But sir, the language is called DHOLUO. And not LUO. Huge difference, its like calling French language France. And lastly, there are several luo tongues, dholuo being just one of them. In Uganda, the acholis and lango call their language lep luo that is to literally say "tongue of luo" as opposed to us calling it dholuo which transliterates to "mouth of luo". Your daughter is a very able assistant and kudos to her. Erokamano ahinya, itimo maber jadhot.
Thanks for the valuable comments and additions
Iam oriyaa and I have learnt something.Thanks
We love your response. Please pass the message to your friends💓💓
hey, thanks i really love this. i want to learn dholou
You are at the right place. Tell a friend to help you so that you can have a learning partner. 😍😍
This is amazing! Learning dholuo is a fun, unfortunately mine evaporated after learning German. Work well done!
Thanks for the complement. You can now speak after the videos and your language knowledge will soon come back
@@LuoEnglishDictionary Thank you very much. You are right, the video is very helpful :)
Enjoyable
Any and Luo people are the same, we speak the same language as Luo people
The Luo are in Uganda among the Acholi, Langi and Jopadhola tribes. They only vary slightly in accent but generally use the same words. A Kenyan Jaluo can easily hold a prolonged conversation with a Ugandan Acholi. They will understand each other very well despite slight inconsequential differences.
Thanks for the great addition to the discussion.
Nice
Thanks
😁😁😁 at 3:13 minutes ive found myself shouting back in response, '' Oimore ahinya'' 😂
Thanks for the feedback. We shall post more videos with similar questions to encourage learners.
That part of irio-nade is it correct or you're to say ichio-nade...
This is super super super!!!!!
I hope you guys get to Rosetta Stone one day. I just wish I had someone to practice with.
Thanks for this wonderful comment.😊
Maybe you should get Patreon. I would like to pay for this knowledge and make it more sustainable for you guys?
@@gathuonjoroge1736 how does it work? Please send us an email to let us know the details and the options available for us. Thanks for this idea
@@gathuonjoroge1736 Awesome. How far have you gone? Just started Luo. Wanna learn Luo and Kikuyu for 2021.
That’s a great goal. Feel free to post questions on our videos and we shall be happy to clarify
Good ..hoping you tell us about osaore
Really awesome video! I practice along with you guys so I kept messing up. Do you have a cheat sheet for the vernacular punctuation?
We shall develop one keep checking back
thanks so much can i speak this luo in lacor hospital. In northern uganda(gulu and lira). I am going for my internship there
Yes you can. The luo accent and tone might be different but you will get the hang of it.
