Could someone take a couple minutes to help me, I'm looking to translate these english words into Wolof. I am striving to find a new proper Kmtyw name for myself. Much thanks and appreciation in advance to all those who help me on this new personal naming quest. Jërëjëf!

It's interesting that the Kiswahili word for universe, dunia, is so similar to the Wolof. This is the second similarity that I've seen in recent days. Is dunyaa derived from aAmwic?
Yes: http://islamic-dictionary.tumblr.com/post/6167498171/dunya-aAmwic-is-a-word (http://islamic-dictionary.tumblr.com/post/6167498171/dunya-aAmwic-is-a-word)
