Afroasiatic languages
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Afroasiatic
Geographic
distribution: Horn of Africa, North Africa, Sahel, Southwest Asia, West Africa, East Africa
Genetic
classification: One of the world's major language families
Subdivisions:
Semitic group
Egyptian
Berber group
Chadic group
Cushitic group (unity debated)
Omotic group (inclusion debated)[1]
ISO 639-2 and 639-5: afa

The Afroasiatic languages constitute a language family with about 375 living languages (SIL estimate) and more than 350 million speakers spread throughout North Africa, the Horn of Africa, and Southwest Asia, as well as parts of the Sahel, West Africa and East Africa. The most widely spoken Afroasiatic language is Arabic, with over 280 million native speakers.[2] In addition to languages now spoken, Afroasiatic includes several ancient languages, such as Ancient Egyptian, Biblical Hebrew, and Akkadian.

The term "Afroasiatic" (often now spelled as Afro-Asiatic) was coined by Maurice Delafosse (1914). It did not come into general use until it was adopted by Joseph Greenberg (1950) to replace the earlier term "Hamito-Semitic", following his demonstration that Hamitic is not a valid language family. The term "Hamito-Semitic" remains in use in the academic traditions of some European countries. Some authors now replace "Afro-Asiatic" with "Afrasian", or, reflecting an opinion that it is more African than Asian, "Afrasan". Individual scholars have called the family "Erythraean" (Tucker 1966) and "Lisramic" (Hodge 1972).

Why dance around the obvious though?? >95% OF THE AFRICANS WHO GOT SHIPPED TO THE AMERICAS ARE WEST AFRICANS. SUB SAHARAN AFRICANS.

The search for an alternate religion aside from Christianity took a lot of our civil rights leaders to Mecca where Africans really have no business because the Trans-Saharan trade with Arabs from Mecca actually led to full blown commerce and eventually slave trading in West Africa.

In other words, in our attempts to stick it to whitey by throwing away the bible, we tried to connect with ppl in Arabia who were not necessarily friends in the first place

Ideological confusion.

If ur ancestory in America can be traced to Africa and the period of Slave trading, you are >95% likely from West Africa. PERIOD. The recent DNA tests have proven that right.

Look at a str8 West African in a YOUTUBE video calling himself Asiactic. It's all good though and i respect his hustle to free up his ppl against all odds.



IT IS AS FUNNY AS CAUCASIANS LYING THAT THEY ARE NATIVE INDIANS OR AFRICAN-AMERICANS CLAIMING THEY ARE CHEROKEE WHEN IT IS CLEAR THAT GRANDMA'S GRANDMA WAS THE SLAVE HOLDER'S FAVORITE CHICK AT NIGHT IN THE QUARTERS.

And by common knowledge easily researched do you mean typing into youtube search box You call me whitewashed and yet you are the one running around like a headless chicken claiming ancient heritages you have nothing to do with. The CAC has trained you well because you claim everything except your real heritage

Are the Africans living on the western part of the continent somehow different genetically from those living in the south or the north?

Yes!! Str8 thoroughbreds with lil to no race mixing. A black man!!! Mandingo prowess!!!

WORD!

I dont understand these cats Big up "Egyptian" or "Moors" when we know the Oldest Knowledge exist South of the Sahara.

What rubbish

Ever heard of the Bantu Migrations

 

[divine]

WORD!

I dont understand these "We are Egyptian" or "We are Moors" when we know the Oldest Knowledge exist South of the Sahara.

What I don't understand is how some of you think that just because in the 21st century, Arabs and Europeans live on the continent, that they were always there. Africans in the South were the same people who lived in the North (and West) when civilizations were being built - its called migrating and expanding. They were the same people then and are the same people now... sharing a common genetic ancestor. Moor means Black; Egypt ( its proper name Kmt) means Black. Nubian means Black. Cush means Black.

Its pretty obvious they haven't heard...

They dont know present day Egypt was founded by raiders from Arabia. The real blacks have been pushed towards the desert with no economic power. Present day Egypt stole from Kush and Nubia. They chipped off the flat nose {negroid super trait} of the Sphinx and claim credit for the Pyramids we built.

But they aint us. By the time Our Ancestors were taken from Africa, Egyptians and Moors were already Mixed with Arabs.

Just because they were Black doesn't make them Our Ancestors.

 

[divine]

So what? Present Day America was founded by a bunch of CAC's full of disease and some of you dumb niggas claim to be Americans. That doesn't change the fact the the original inhabitants where Asiatic/African. What is your point?

[divine]

And by the time you landed in America you were mixed with European and Spaniards. Does that change the fact that you African? Race mixing is not new.. whether it was by force or voluntary.

We've always migrated. I am staying focused on my initial period under scrutiny here. The fact that 95 % 0f all slaves were shipped off the coast of West Africa with Dahomey and Cape Coast playing a big part in the numbers.

Can a str8 up black man live in present day Egypt? Yes. I am just asking African-Americans to look to West Africa as their home in Africa by default till they prove otherwise.

The recent DNA tests have always pointed African-Americans to a gene-pool home in West Africa

 

[divine]

Ok, help me understand... are you brothers saying that just because CAC's and Arabs now live in Egypt, that Black people no longer have a right to claim that homeland?

 

[jokekofi]

NO!!! That is not what we are saying at all. I understand where u are coming from with that claim. Obviously, that is African Civilisation stolen. We still claim it. We have to.

On the other hand, u can relate to the confusion this can bring to a semi-literate light skin chick on a HBCU campus somewhere claiming they are going to take a once-in-a lifetime African tour to connect with their past at a tourist site in Egypt?? ..when in all actuality, they are better off going to visit their real cousins in Ghana or Senegal?

 

[divine]

Why can't they do both? Its a great thing to see the marvel of what our ancestors built in Egypt just as it is to see the beauty in the people in Senegal and Ghana.. and Ethiopia for that matter. It doesn't have to be either or...

And what does it matter that the chic is light-skinned?

[SaKem]

I do share your distaste for romanticism of history and would simply prefer history portrayed with accuracy rather than Eurocentric ideals clouding the key points.

With the genetics of the diaspora littered with the genes of other races, I always believed that the true afro-asiatics are the Egyptians, since they are the mullato offspring and flourished after the fall of Africa...
integration at its best and the long argument against such blending of bloodlines.

Egy[tians weren't "mullatto" at all. They were "Sudanese" Ethiopian, Somalian and Eritrean. Thats why you have to blend what you're taught, cuz modern whites will fool you into thinking they were white, they were Very very black. Even the Greeks said so.

 

[SaKem]

But they aint us. By the time Our Ancestors were taken from Africa, Egyptians and Moors were already Mixed with Arabs.

Just because they were Black doesn't make them Our Ancestors.

No no no. Some moors were mixed not even close to all. The mixed ones had names. Tawny Moors were the mixed ones. Berbers were mixed as well. The majority of Moors were black as night, then the other 40% or so were Arab. With sprinkled mixes.

 

[SaKem]

This is how Egyptians saw themselves. They are to the far Left, Nubians or other Africans are the black figure second to last

Like i said : We can claim the N,S,W and East of the motherland. True, so long as we know where we shipped off. Our roots.

My light skin HBCU chick is real. She is half-white or a quarter white and she is really a true sister. She does not acknowledge her white side becos the reality on the ground makes it hard to embrace that side of her ancestory. She is more apt to embrace the Arab in Egypt today or claim Cherookee Indian but does not want to have anything to do with people from Ethiopia cos all she sees on CNN are flies on the lips of starving children in an undated photo during a famine.
She really has not come to terms with the fact that the Afro-centricity she is claiming has its roots in West Africa. Why becos Ama from Ghana on the college campus speaks with an accent she is embarssed by and she is too dark to be seen in Night time colored photos.

PS: The perso n i described above is actually gender-neutral.

You know the history Divine, but if u do not teach it right at the beginning of the story where Black=Glory, you wd further confuse an already confused HBCU light-skin chick. No offense meant. Just sharing what i seen having been on both sides of the fence.

I'm just saying lets not get all happy about Moors and Kemet and sweep our most likely ancestors under the rug.

I want my brothers and sisters in the diaspora to proudly focus on Sub-saharan Africa, ie, the area btn the tropic of Cancer and the tropic of Capricorn on the map above. We are very comfortable and at home here.

Nice posts.

I don't understand the confusion. When our ancestors were first getting educated around here in the early part of the 20th century they found out they shouldn't be Xtians and had a proud history.

Unfortunately many skipped right over western/central Africa and went straight for Egypt and the Horn and for a bastardized version of Islam.

IMHO African Americans need to get off of Ancient Egypts nuts and be proud of sub-saharan African accomplishments. You would never see genetically different Italians running around bragging about shit Russians did. No true Nordics claim Greece and vice versa. Genetic testing has proven how diverse Africa is, to look at the people living there as one is some racist colonial shit.

As I said before, white people and Chinese share the same skin tone but would they claim each others shit???????????

Also, some of the Ancient Egyptians dug up confused white people because of their skull shape/bone structure they were thought white skinned, but were not. Same way African-Americans want to claim them because they had dark skin. Skin color alone doesn't mean shit.

Haven't they even done genetic tests on old egyptain mummies and shown the link directly to East Africa? When they tests African-Americans 95% of come from a different region, we are finally able to find out where we really came from and should be fucking proud and let the East Africans have their damn legacy.

I agree. I have been to Cairo several times and I have an Arabic name and I have never been called an Egyptian. They did however call me something else though...
