Step-by-step solution

5 steps

here are the solutions to the questions:

1. Se agya bɔsɔm yɛ wo ntoa a, maame mogya yɛ wo.
(If father's bosom is your bag, mother's blood is your...)

  1. Translate the proverb.

    This is an Akan proverb. "Agya bɔsɔm yɛ wo ntoa" means "If father's bosom is your bag (i.e., temporary support or external wealth)". "Maame mogya yɛ wo" means "mother's blood is your...".

  2. Understand the cultural context.

    In Akan society, lineage and identity are primarily traced through the mother's blood (mogya), which determines one's abusua (family or clan). The proverb implies that while a father might provide for you, your true identity and belonging come from your mother's lineage.

  3. Choose the best fit from the options.

    • A. Sra (funeral rites)
    • B. Bɔsɔm (bosom/chest)
    • C. Abusua (family/clan)
    • D. Nkwa (life) The mother's blood defines one's abusua.

    The final answer is C. Abusua\boxed{\text{C. Abusua}}.

    2. Akanfoɔ wo gyedie sɛ onipa biara wo ɔkra ne sunsum. Kyereɛ ɛdin foforɔ a yɛde fre sunsum.
    (Akan people believe that every person has an 'okra' and a 'sunsum'. State another name we use to call 'sunsum'.)

  4. Understand the Akan spiritual concepts.

    • Okra (or kra) is the soul or life force, given by God, which determines one's destiny.
    • Sunsum is the spirit or personality, inherited from the father, which influences one's character and temperament.
  5. Identify the term closely related to sunsum.

    • A. Abusua (matrilineal clan)
    • B. Mogya (blood, matrilineal inheritance)
    • C. Nton (patrilineal clan/spirit)
    • D. Saman (ghost of a dead person) The nton is the patrilineal spirit or character inherited from the father, which is closely associated with the sunsum and dictates one's character and taboos. Therefore, nton is considered another name or a specific aspect of the sunsum.

    The final answer is C. Nton\boxed{\text{C. Nton}}.

    3. Okwan bɛn so na Akanfoɔ aam bɔ
    (Which way do Akan people...)
