Music from the Rashaida tribe of Eritrea. The song is from an Eritrean Rashaida, but there are also many Rashaida citizens in East Sudan

  • we are arabic

  • shut up binyam, we are semitic and cushtic!

  • i have some questions . is true that all eritreans speak arabic or also speak tigre language. i want know if i know arabic also i can speak with the tigre poeple,,,,,,,and i have other doubt tigre language is the same that the amhariña or the tigriya,,,,,,,,,can a tigryña understand to a amhara................

  • A large majority of Eritreans are fluent or have some understanding. Tigre is close to both Arabic and Tigrigna, to me it seems like Tigre is Arabic and Tigrigna mixed. Amharina comes from Tigrigna and has a lot of Cushitic influence due to its location! Though they are related, Tigre and Amharic are distant family members! Tigrigna speaker can not understand Amharic, nor can a Tigre speaker completely understand Tigrigna.

  • There are ignorant assholes on this forum that need to refrain from making ignorant comments such as "Although the rashaida never contributed to our country ..." If our heroes Tegadelti thought they were worthy of their blood sheded then one of you have the right to question the Eritrean identity of the Rashaida people. all residing within Eritrea proclaiming to be Eritrean and loyal to Eritrea are Eritreans. I ask this what have you contributed to Eritrea that makes you better than anyone else?

  • I really like this!!!

  • the rashaidas in sudan are arab

  • are teh Rashaida nomadic arabs/bedouins? 

  • @Raddaaee The Kunama have also been in Eritrea the longest.

  • @nakfa83 Moreover the Rashaida contributed A LOT to Eritrea's independence struggle. They smuggled and spied a lot for the Shabia back in the day, right under the Derg's unsuspecting nose:-)

  • I love the Rashaida - the women are veiled but arent slaves who never leave the house - they sing and dance and enjoy life!

    love x

  • @eritreantigaraly That's actually not entirlely true.

  • Rashaida just came to Eritrea though, In general Bedouins think they are a nation on their own wherever they go.

    The oldest Eritreans are the Afar that been there as far as history goes those speak the old Language, then the Semitic speaking Tigrinya those assimilated lots of natives but the original Semitic group came a few thousand years ago
