This week we invite you to come watch two videos on Abibitumi Kasa, the first one is titled TwiSwahili or KiswaTwili: A Study of Parallel Proverbs in Akan (Twi) and Kiswahili and is presented by Dr. Obadele Kambon and Dr. Josephine Dzahene-Quarshie at LAG 2015. This presentation took place on Tuesday July 28th, in it you will learn about the biological, cosmological, cultural and locational proximity between these proverbs as well as their conceptual/semantic, contextual, lexical and syntactic/structural similarities through six sets of proverbs and many others that you can analyze yourself to look for proximity and similarity amongst them.
