The "N" Word

The word nigger traces back to Ancient Egyptian times. The word nigger originally means God, and it is a sacred and divined word. During these times, the word was spelled NGR and pronounced en-ger. Look at each part of African pronounces, spell, and have a different meaning of the word nigger. Any word that begins with an n is either people, god, and groups. During those times, Black is worship as gods. Here is an example (Link) 

N-g-r (Egyptian;pronounced en-jer) = God

N-t-y-r (Egypt; pronounced net-ger) = God, Devine

Negash (Ethiopia; one-gash) = King

Negus (Ethiopia; ne-goos) = Emperor

Nkosi (Xhosa; en-kosi) = God

Ndaba (Zulu; en-daba) = Council/Officials,

Naga (East Indian, Nubian = People

Nugarmarta (West African = People

So how did the word nigger go from being a marvelous word to a trained word? Let us go to Roman/European (Caucasian People). So people already know that these groups of people are the ones to misuse the word. Since the beginning of time, they have been misusing the word, not just during slavery. (What people typically think the word nigger started. To the Roman/ European people, nigger means black. Since the Romans lives in Europe and Central Asia and they knew Africans were living there at the time, The Orginal Meaning Of The "N" Word) (MORE Information)Look at how the Roman/European made a bad impact on the word nigger. Now they how other countries misusing the word, for example: 

Niger = (Latin or Black/African pronounced "ni-ger.")

Nero = Italian for Black

Negre = French for Black

Negro = Spanish for Black

The English called Blacks "Moore" or "Black-a-Moore" before using the word.

"Negro" to refer to Blacks. FROM THAT WORD CAME THE RACIAL EPITHET, "NIGG.."

After the Roman/European switch, the word's meaning and had other countries using this offensive word.  The only person who considered nigger was them because other countries had used the word as a color with a different spelling( even though it all started with the letter “N” )and different pronunciations. In french, the color black in their language is Noir, but when it is towards a black person, it means Negre, but if it was a black woman,n she is called negress. So that shows people how one can mean two different things and become a misinterpreted word. Other countries did not know until they got taught the word.

So people now get to see that it did not only start in American. It was brought to American. People were always taught that White Americans had started the word when Africans were brought to  America.  Do not believe that because readers see that the word was brought into America. The word did become an insulting word in American until the 19th century (A Note On The Word "Nigger"), but we know that is not true. But remember when I stated in the  Mississippi Riches to Rags Blog that Black was considered property and not citizens in America. Hence, they considered them as niggers and not blacks, especially in the Southern states. Blacks did not gain citizenship until July 1868 (14th Amendment was applied to the Constitution. Even though Black got citizenship in American, they still got called niggers, because Americans made sure at the end of the day, they are still property and humans. Black still got treated like Animals. But in the oxford dictionary, many different definitions of the word nigger, from black to calling a person who does menial labor any person considered to be of low social status.  To be honest, anybody can be a nigger at this point even though they so-called targeting blacks in the definition because people see that nigger means black and see that others how they are doing hard-working labor and lower-class people. Remember, the dictionary did not put black people in the definition. Remember how people defined nigger as lazy and ignorant remember, anybody can be a nigger.  When a black person is being called a nigger, remember the word's true definition. The websites like dictionary.com will say that nigger means a contemptuous term for a black or dark-skinned person. The word's definition has been changed so many times throughout our time.
