i hear the prayers of the faithful, and of the small creatures that live in the grassfields. i ask my professor how i might best answer them. "we're studying the beatitudes today, my child" replies he. scoffing, i smite him with a thunderbolt. now there won't "be" any more "attitude", will there?

Fifty-five inches tall. Cotton, burlap, glass beads, twine, leather, and wood, shaped into an elephant's head with huge fan ears. In Cameroon's Grassfields, elephants signaled power and leadership. Worn at funerals and coronations.

Not many grassfields in Greenland.
Mostly lumpy mosscovered lava there.
In Greenland it is easier.

'kola' is also a basic vocabulary item in the typical language of the Cameroon Grassfields (and it grows well there too, just past the eastern border of this map) - in Kom, ibi [ībi᷇], pl. tɨbi [tɨ̄bi᷇]; proto-Grassfields likely has a word *-bɪ́(̀ )
Linguistic evidence indicates that the term for Kola in the languages of the Savanah region was borrowed from the West-Atlantic languages of the Sierra Leone-Guinea border area, where it was first obtained

View from the Manang plateau in Nepal. Love the blue color of the river in combination with the rockformations and dried vegetation. And the simple housing in the background.

in the Cameroon Grassfields, the word for "white/foreigner" often involves the term "red", for example wul ɨ baŋnɨ "red person" in Kom. "red" encompasses any reddish or light colors that are *not* white and there is a separate word for "white", but one would not use that word for people

West & North Cameroon. Both the Grassfields and the Mandara Mountains. It’s lush and green and cool and if you’re a mountain person it’s heaven.
