Thanks bro. Let me add this- the wisdom in the king palace that gets burnt is that because it's the King's palace many people wants to contribute in rebuilding it and lots of fund definitely will make it more beautiful.
“Ile Oba tojo ewa lo bukun” is an adage in Yoruba language . Literal translation is “The king’s palace that got burnt would add beauty to it when reconstructed” its main meaning is that “ every cloud has a silver lining” it is often used to give assurance of hope when calamity befalls someone. Yoruba is “one” of the most complex languages.
Russo Wintergreen Something tells me you're foolish and need a beating. But something else tells me you're just pitifully ignorant and need a lecture. Which one is it?
LOL! David totally fudged that up. It implies that when the chief's house gets burnt, it creates an opportunity to build him a more beautiful one. It's one of the sayings used to console people after a loss.
Youve come as far as the gentiles, until the UK and American blacks move spiritually instead of geographically, no one has moved anywhere, even if they walk 1000 miles, if they have not found God within them, if there is none in you, then you have moved nothing and Gone nowhere....Selah

I was going to let this fly but "Adiye funfun ko no ara e lagba" Means "an adult needs to stop acting like a child" it's one of our few Indeginous Yoruba sayings...
Thank God you didn't let it fly... I'm igbo but when I did idioms and proverbs in Yoruba class your translation is what we were taught. David Oyelowo cracked me up with his weird translation though.
The funniest thing ever was Jamie Foxx introducing her as African American at the Oscars about a decade ago, and he was SOOOO UNCOMFORTABLE with that phrasing. Looking at the teleprompter like it was the worst kind of liar.

Yoruba: Ìlę òba tó jò èwà lo bu sí English: The burnt king's house only makes it more beautiful Meaning : He is rich and would only build it back up to be greater than before Saying: dont worry about the situation that looks bad right now you only gonna bounce back greater
Adiye funfun ko mo ara e lagba doesn’t mean what he said. It’s used when an adult isn’t acting his age. Doesn’t mean one is ageless. It means the individual is immature.
L Cam the expression is pretty much uniform in the Yoruba language. Kind of like how English proverbs and idioms mean the same thing in all English speaking nations.
I can’t blame him, I was born in London but my mum has spoken Yoruba to me since I was a baby and I can understand it fluently. But to this day o can’t speak it and when it’s written down it looks like a whole new language to me 😭😭
Ile oba to jo ewa lo bu si means a king's house that got burnt adds beauty to it(literally). Which when explained means when a property gets burnt, it gets more beautiful after renovations. So next time, when you go through a horrible or painful situation, and you shake yourself and choose to rise above the situation, you definitely come out better than you used to be 💪
Curious Creature uh no, the Afrikaans language was a mesh of Dutch and native languages in the Cape to allow for a medium of communication between them so, no not quite
D. Foxx black chicken - like a person - a human with black hair will see their age when their hair becomes white but if you were born with white hair, you won’t ever see yourself age because you were born with white hair, it won’t ever change colour as you age. If that makes sense.
Oh my! ILe Oba to jo, Ewa lo bu si means, the King’s house that burnt, would be built back with more splendor! So u can turn a disaster into an opportunity for improvement
@@Missy50505 it's kinda like an insult or meant to be insulting, it is used when an adult isn't acting his/her age, the relevance of the color there is it's allusion to age, as we grow old, our hair gets whiter or greyer, so a chicken that was born white since it has been white all its life won't realize it has aged because it was never black, and it'll continue acting young. The hair there is an indication of age(not that chickens change color as they grow older, but I hope you get what I mean)
I like how he mispronounced and apologised to all Nigerians. I am Nigerian but not Yoruba, but I have heard oloshi and nyash too often that I just adopt them as Nigerian slang 🤣
I'm half South African and I'm always so amazed when my relatives talk to each other in Afrikaans. My mum has only taught me some words like boerewors and stukkie, but I've always wished I was fluent! I want to learn so bad because I want to try to have a full conversation in the language with my grandpa and with an antie that visits my grandmother and her family every xmas
I am fourteen years old and I speak 4 languages fluently which areSpanish, German, Russian also, Afrikaans and my teacher in school is South African so when she asks me a question she speaks to me in Afrikaans and I translate to her back which is quite cool as no one in my class understands what we are saying. My Mum is South African and my dad speaks Afrikaans so on Parents Evening they speak in Afrikaans!!
This video is so fun to watch for me, i'm half Dutch half Nigerian (born and raised in The Netherlands). So trying to understand/hearing Afrikaans is very funny and even though I do not speak Yoruba, my dad does so I did recognise some of the words (especially the swear words lmao)
I'm Nigerian and I'm CRY-LAUGHING! LMAOOOO THIS IS SO FUNNY. David really tried with the yoruba slang and charlize killed me with the "i like to include everybody" line hahahah
3ama4life yeah they're not as common as they could be. My parents and extended family spoke Yoruba all the time but I only ever heard those proverbs in Yoruba class at school.
I LOVE her! She is not only beautiful, but so so talented and timeless! She is SUCH AN AMAZING actress! She amazes me in how she can transform herself so wonderfully into her characters she plays! LOVE! LOVE! LOVE HER! She is one of my favorite actresses!🥰🥰🥰❤❤😘😍

Adiye fufun ko mora e’lagba.. is an adage in Yoruba, literally is “ a white chicken doesn’t realize it has aged” meaning “respect yourself”
Makes more sense now.
Still don't understand the relevance of the colour nor the link between that saying and the meaning
Because you go grey when you get old...
