I am not Malian but I like Bambara and think N’ko writing is beautiful so I made translated subtitles in Bambara + N’ko
What do you think? What should I improve?
Merci à tous!

I’m not from mail but I recently discovered Mali music from TikTok the song Sigi Kuruni. I had it on repeat the whole weak. It sounds so good! I’m not sure what the translation of it is but I really like the sound of the language and instrument. What language is this ?
Hey guys! I look at gaming cultures around the world and I am a racing game fan. I have asked all of these questions on different subreddits, simply because I am curious about how each and every single country on this planet experiences video games. I am also curious about gaming in Mali. My questions are:
What is more popular? PC or console?
What was more popular in the late 90s and early 2000s? PC or Console?
What racing game was popular in the late 90s and early 2000s!
What do racing game fans in Mali play today?-(I get it might not be the most popular genre, but for people who like it, what do they play?)
In general, what games are played there?

How's everyone doing ? I read an article about how a group of people migrating from Ouagadou went to the region of mande where they found a people called "Korobagadougou". Does anyone know what the term translates to and who are these people? Would the Malinke and Bambara expansion be a result of those people from ouagadou and these "Korobagadougou" intermixing?
How about enterprenurers launching free tv channels for students across the country where the interactive lessons may broadcast grade and topicwise. Making interesting programs like young students providing free education to poor, programs about making relevant projects in home and/or institutes, program on testing foreign grain/fruits/plants/projects on different types across country, program on implementing one-house-one-farm project in rural areas, exploring and creating local businesses and works, program on interecting expatriates to implement foreign succeccful projects in home, program on making local commnities self-sufficient, programs about competition on different things among schools, colleges, universities and uniting different communities etc. What do you think?

I am planning to travel to Nothwest Africa in a few weeks as part of my journey to visit every country. Upon research, I understand that Mali (and Burkina Faso) are both "Do Not Travels" by most governments, however I am reading that if I stick to the capital cities, I should mostly be fine. Is this still the case for Bamako? What if I take a bus to Burkina Faso, does that increase the risk of safety as a foreigner? I am a 36 male American.
If anyone knows where i can buy a table tennis table in bamako, thanks for references
Aside from tech are there any ride share apps like uber?
What city in mali has the highest population of soninke ? And i also read that the bambara are the royalty class of the old soninke empire. How true is that?
In mali 4c hair is common?, i question this beacause 3c,4a, 4b when they dry, look like 4c but is not 4c. I know its a very stupid question, but i see many black people have differents hair textures, for this i make this question
I used to live in The Gambia, near two villages names Yorobaol and Boro Kanda Kassy. I hear those phrases 'yoro baol' (or yero bawol maybe?) and kanda kassy in various Bambara songs. I also know that there was a pre-colonial kingdom in Senegal caled Baol. What do those phrases mean?
are you determined your tribal membership by your father? or is that only in islam
I believe that work is what our beloved country needs in order to thrive. An EDM employee just got at our home and explained he belonged to a team whose mission is to inventoring all of EDM's equipment in the whole country. They'd go door after door and gather precious data about home's electrical setup.
At first, my father was suspicious cause he didn't know if the man was telling the truth. Then I showed up and understood quickly he wasn't trying to scam. He showed me the app they used to collect the information and since I'm a computer scientist, I quickly understood that this couldn't be a scam.
I then welcomed him properly and assisted him in his work as much as I could. I tried to chat with him and make him realise how important his work actually is. I was really happy to see a hard working Malian and just wanted to give him force. I even wanted to give him a tip but I didn't have my wallet nearby.
I want with this post to make Malians consider work as one of the most important values. Let's make all workers proud of their job because only work is path to our salvation.
Can anyone recommend dishes that best represent Malian food from this restaurant? Thank you!
I'm an Indian living in Mali, I have some queries regarding Orange sim recharge in Mali. Recently I saw a website Mobilerecharge.com, which did online recharge but after a while the recharges stopped.
So is there any other way I can recharge online. Any help will be appreciated
one of my favorite artists, jacob collier, has an album that is 5 years old. a song on it called nebaluyo features an artist called oumou sangaré. i think that she mainly sings in wassoulou, but i’m not completely sure. i know that jacob said nebaluyo means “all the mothers” but if anyone could translate the rest of the song, i would be grateful!
here’s the link to the song: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=uWxJle6zuZY
Also Radio announcer was funny😆.
Hello r/Mali! I'm throwing a dinner party for my friends, focusing on the food, culture and history of Mali. I have put together a list of dishes -- perhaps you could give insight if they are really popular or if you would change some. I'm struggling finding snack/appetizer options, perhaps there are some recommendations?
As I understand, the national dish is maafe (actually tigadegena), so I would cook and serve that. I would serve it over fonio, as I understand that is more common in Mali than white rice.
To end the night, I would offer Malinese tea and as a drink on the side, jus de bissap.
I would like to start the evening with some appetisers or lighter foods -- what do you commonly eat for that purpose? Are there any dishes that I should add?
Thanks in advance!
