made the sea recede, reclaiming the land of Goa.[1] The history of Goa goes back 20,000–30,000 years and Goans communicate in the Konkani language. Goans, the inhabitants of Goa were ruled by different non-secular rulers who were, Hindus, Muslims and Catholics. Coastal Goa during colonial times interacted with traders of same secular faith (e.g., Christianity), who communicated in different languages (e.g., Portuguese, French, English). Hence, the Konkani language used for communication in Goa within its own boundaries has been influence by interaction with the governing communities in Arabic, Portuguese, English. The interaction resulted in loaning words from other languages. A loanword, (or loan word or loan-word) is a word borrowed from a donor language and incorporated into a recipient language without translation. It is distinguished from a calque, or loan translation, where a meaning or idiom from another language is translated into existing words or roots of the host language. Using loanwords in Konkani language is not unique to Konkani language, and loanwords, from non-secular origins resulted in Arabization and Romanization of languages. Similarly colonial languages such as Portuguese, Spanish and English, have loaned words from each other. Examples of loan words in English include: café (from French café ‘coffee’), bazaar (from Persian bazar ‘market’), and kindergarten (from German Kindergarten ‘children’s garden’). The word loanword is itself a calque of the German term Lehnwort,[2] while the term calque is a loanword from French. The Konkani word Feni (or fenny or fenim) is a spirit produced exclusively in Goa, India. Feni is produced from cashew(Caju) apple. Cashew fruit is originally native to northeastern Brazil, the tree is now widely grown in tropical regions of, India and Nigeria. While the cashew plant is native to northeast Brazil, the Portuguese brought it to Goa, India, between 1560 and 1565. From there it spread throughout Southeast Asia and eventually Africa.[3] The word Feni has been loaned to the world in every known language, Saud ani Viva La Goa (Happy Health and Long Live Goa)!

This was around 2200 BC and Sumerians had established trade contacts with Goa. Many Sumerians settled in Goa and along the Konkan coast. The theocratic democracy of Sumerian was transformed into the oligarchic democracy of village-administration in Goa known as Gavkari, when it overlapped with the practices of the locals. The agricultural land was jointly owned by the group of villagers, they had right to auction the land, this rent was used for development, and the remainder was distributed amongst the Gavkars. Sumerians view that the village land must belong to the village god or goddess, this was the main feature of the Gavkari system where the village's preeminent deity's temple was the centre of all the activities.[4] Thus even before any king ruled the territory, oligarchic democracy in the form of Gavkari existed in Goa. Hence, oligarchic democracy (in the form of Gavkari) existed in Goa. (Konkani:??????), and despite the periodic change of sovereigns, the Gaunponn always remained, hence the attachment and fidelity of the Goans to their village has always surpassed their loyalty to their rulers (most of them were extraterritorial).[5] This system for governance became further systematized and fortified, and it has continued to exist ever since. Even today 223 comunidades are still functioning in Goa, though not in the true sense.[6] The second wave of Indo-Aryans arrived sometime between 1700 to 1400 BC. This second wave migration was accompanied by Dravidians from the Deccan plateau. A wave of Kusha or Harappan people moved to Lothal probably around 1600 BC to escape submergence of their civilisation which thrived on sea-trade.[7] With the admixture of several cultures, customs, religions, dialects and beliefs, led to revolutionary change in early Goan society.[8] Chandragupta Maurya incorporated the west coast of India in his province of Aparanta, and the impact of Magadhan Prakrit, the official language of the Mauryan Empire, on the local dialects resulted in the formation of early Konkani, as was the case with other Aryan vernaculars. The Kadambas ruled Goa from the 10th to 14th centuries. In the beginning, the Kadambas ruled only Sashti and a small part of Konkan. They ruled from Chandor, over a large part, but the port of Gopakapattana was not included in the early years.[9] The Goa Kadambas were the later scions of the main Kadamba Dynasty, whose modern descendants still live in Goa. Though their language of administration was Sanskrit and Kannada, Konkani and Marathi were also prevalent. They introduced Kannada language to Goa, which had a very profound influence on the local tongue. Nagari script, Kadamba script, Halekannada script and Goykanadi scripts were very popular. Kadambas ruled Goa for more than 400 years until they lost power to Devagiri Yadavas. After the Muslim invasions, the Kadamba Dynasty was lost forever. Ruins of the palaces, mansions, temples and markets can be still seen in Chandor village. In 1350 AD, Goa was conquered by the Bahmani Sultanate. However, in 1370, the Vijayanagar empire, a resurgent Hindu empire situated at modern day Hampi, reconquered the area. In 1469 Goa was reconquered by the Bahmani Sultans of Gulbarga. When this Sultanate broke up in 1492, Goa became a part of Adil Shah's Bijapur Sultanate, which established Goa Velha as its second capital. In 1510, Portuguese admiral Afonso de Albuquerque attacked Goa at the behest of the local chieftain Thimayya. After losing the city briefly to its former ruler, Ismail Adil Shah, the Muslim King of Bijapur, Albuquerque returned in force on 25 November, with a fully renovated fleet.[10] In less than a day, the Portuguese fleet took possession of Goa from Ismail Adil Shah and his Ottoman allies, who surrendered on 10 December. The former Secretariat building in the state capital of Ponje (Konkani) or Panjim (English) (now Panaji) is a former Adil Shahi palace, later taken over by the Portuguese Viceroys as their official residence. When India became independent in 1947, Goa remained under Portuguese control. On 16 December 1961, Indian troops crossed the border into Goa and liberated (or invaded) Goa. 'Operation Vijay' involved sustained land, sea, and air strikes for more than 36 hours; it resulted in the unconditional surrender of Portuguese forces on 19 December. Vauraddeancho Ixtt (workers friend in Konkani) a Romani Konkani publication, played a brave role in the support of Goa’s freedom struggle, a role that angered the Portuguese who then imposed clamps on the paper.[11] It played the role of a nationalist newspaper that the Portuguese tried to suppress before the Invasion of Goa.[citation needed] It was initially published in Romani Konkani, Portuguese, and English. Currently, it is mainly in Romani Konkani, with a few columns in English.[12] A United Nations resolution condemning the invasion was proposed by the United States and the United Kingdom in the United Nations Security Council, but it was vetoed by the USSR. Under Indian rule, Goan voters went to the polls in a referendum and voted to become an autonomous, federally administered territory. Goa was admitted to Indian statehood in 1987. After joining India, the territory of Goa was under military rule for five months, however the previous civil service was soon restored and the area became a federally administered territory. Goa celebrates its "Liberation Day" on 19 December every year, which is also a state holiday. History of languages in Goa[edit] Konkani (Devanagari: ??????, Ko?ka?i) Kannada script: ?????? (konka?i) is an Indo-Aryanlanguage belonging to the Indo-European[13] family of languages and is spoken along the western coast of India. Under the ISO 639-3 classification, all the dialects of the Konkani language except for those that come under Maharashtrian Konkani are collectively assigned the language code ISO 639:gom and called as Goan Konkani. In this context, it includes dialects spoken outside the state of Goa, such as Mangalorean Konkani, Chitpavani Konkani Malvani Konkani and Karwari Konkani. In common usage, Goan Konkani refers collectively only to those dialects of Konkani spoken primarily in the state of Goa, e.g. the Antruz, Bardeskari and Saxtti dialects. The influence of various languages can be broadly classified as direct due to the ruling communities within the territorial boundaries and peripheral interaction along the boundaries as well as indirect due to the Goan diaspora in various countries or within India in various geographical locations. Konkani, the language of Goa and of its diaspora on the western coast of India and, has come into contact with many local languages and incorporated lexicon from these languages. With the Kannada Kadambas ruling Goa and its close proximity to Maharashtra a lot of Kannada and Marathi words have been incorporated. The Konkani community with its trade links with the Arabs and Persians have also incorporated many Arabic and Persian words into their vocabulary. Portuguese was the sole official language during Portuguese colonial rule. It is now, however, mostly spoken by only the elderly Portuguese educated populations and is no longer an official language. During Portuguese rule, the Konkani language was suppressed, made inferior and displaced by the enforcement of Portuguese, becoming known as the "Lingua de criados" (language of servants). The Hindu and Catholic elites turned to Marathi and Portuguese, respectively. Ironically Konkani is now the gelatin that glues Goans of all faiths, and is affectionately referred to as Konkani Maibhas.[14] The preference among Goan Catholic parents to speak to their children in Potaachi Bhas (literally language of the stomach, rather implying commerce) over Mai Bhas (mother tongue). The Goa, Daman and Diu Official Language Act, 1987 makes Konkani in the Devanagari script the sole official language of Goa, but provides that Marathi may also be used "for all or any of the official purposes". The Government also has a policy of replying in Marathi to correspondence received in Marathi.[15] Whilst there have been demands for according Konkani in the Roman script official status in the state, there is widespread support for keeping Konkani as the sole official language of Goa.[16] English language was influential, while most Goan Catholics remained in Goa, as some did not accept the leadership of the Portuguese and emigrated to many British Raj, colonies of India. The British found the Christian Goans were eminently suitable because of their Western dress, diet, customs and culture, when the fleets withdrew from Goa some time afterward, the Goans sailed with them. Goans who trained at the medical school also moved to other Portuguese colonies around 1842 after the first medical school was created. Goans migrated to British India as well where there were more opportunities and economic development was occurring, which led to a demand for English language schools for these migrants which surpassed that of those educated in Portuguese. However, such was the demand that Goans began sending their children to neighboring cities such as Bombay, Poona and Belgaum. Reis Magos is the Portuguese name for the Three Wise Men from the Bible. The Reis Magos Fort was initially used as a residence for Portuguese viceroys and later converted to a fortress. It was occupied briefly between 1798-1813 by the British Army. Due to the 1878 Anglo – Portuguese Treaty, the British monopolised the salt production in Goa and resold it to the Portuguese.[17] Reis Magos Fort was subsequently abandoned by the military and served as a prison until 1993. The brief presence of British in Goa along with the migration of Goans to British colonies, explains the direct and indirect influences of English on the Konkani language. Thus use of Roman script in Konkani was a natural progression. Konkani is spoken as a native language by about 61% of the people in the state but almost all Goans can speak and understand Konkani. Other linguistic minorities in the state as per the 2001 census are Marathi (19%), Kannada (7%), Hindi (5%), and Urdu (4%).[18] A large section of the Konkani community have resided in the canara and Malabar Coasts and have thus incorporated many Kannada and Malayalam words. The Portuguese were present along coastal India (e.g., Calicut, Malabar, Goa, Daman, Diu, Bombaim, Bassein (Baçaim) to name a few) and Goa supplanted Calicut. With Portuguese colonisation of Goa a large number of Portuguese lexicon was incorporated The Commonwealth realms (pink) and their territories and protectorates (red) at the beginning of Elizabeth II's reign A formal group of Elizabeth in tiara and evening dress with eleven politicians in evening dress or national costume. Elizabeth II and Commonwealth leaders at the 1960 Commonwealth Conference, Windsor Castle From Elizabeth's birth onwards, the British Empire continued its transformation into the Commonwealth of Nations.[73] By the time of her accession in 1952, her role as head of multiple independent states was already established.[74] Spanning 1953–54, the Queen and her husband embarked on a six-month around-the-world tour. She became the first reigning monarch of Australia and New Zealand to visit those nations.[75] During the tour, crowds were immense; three-quarters of the population of Australia were estimated to have seen her.[76] Throughout her reign, the Queen has undertaken state visits to foreign countries and tours of Commonwealth ones and she is the most widely travelled head of state.[77] In 1956, French Prime Minister Guy Mollet and British Prime Minister Sir Anthony Eden discussed the possibility of France joining the Commonwealth. The proposal was never accepted and the following year France signed the Treaty of Rome, which established the European Economic Community, the precursor of the European Union.[78] In November 1956, Britain and France invaded Egypt in an ultimately unsuccessful attempt to capture the Suez Canal. Lord Mountbatten claimed the Queen was opposed to the invasion, though Eden denied it. Eden resigned two months later.[79] The absence of a formal mechanism within the Conservative Party for choosing a leader meant that, following Eden's resignation, it fell to the Queen to decide whom to commission to form a government. Eden recommended that she consult Lord Salisbury, the Lord President of the Council. Lord Salisbury and Lord Kilmuir, the Lord Chancellor, consulted the British Cabinet, Winston Churchill, and the Chairman of the backbench 1922 Committee, resulting in the Queen appointing their recommended candidate: Harold Macmillan.[80] The Suez crisis and the choice of Eden's successor led in 1957 to the first major personal criticism of the Queen. In a magazine, which he owned and edited,[81] Lord Altrincham accused her of being "out of touch".[82] Altrincham was denounced by public figures and slapped by a member of the public appalled by his comments.[83] Aleksejs Širovs born – chess player Andris Škele born – politician Prime Minister of Latvia Armands Škele – basketball player Ksenia Solo born – actress Ernests Štalbergs – – architect ensemble of the Freedom Monument Izaks Nahmans Šteinbergs – – politician lawyer and author Maris Štrombergs – BMX cyclist gold medal winner at and Olympics T edit Esther Takeuchi born – materials scientist and chemical engineer Mihails Tals – – the th World Chess Champion Janis Roberts Tilbergs – – painter sculptor U edit Guntis Ulmanis born – president of Latvia Karlis Ulmanis – – prime minister and president of Latvia

into Konkani. The Portuguese also established themselves in Bombaim (1534-1661). On 11 May 1661, the marriage treaty of Charles II of England and Catherine of Braganza, daughter of King John IV of Portugal, placed Bombaim in possession of the British Empire, as part of dowry of Catherine to Charles. Even after the treaty, some villages in Bombaim remained under Portuguese possession, but many were later acquired by the British. In 1608, the English East India Company established a settlement at Surat (now in the state of Gujarat), and this became the company's first headquarters town. In 1661 Bombay was ceded to the Kingdom of England as part of the dowry of the infanta Catherine of Braganza. Hence, Konkani was influenced in Goa by Portuguese (1510-1961) and the Goan diaspora in Bombaim (1534-1661), influenced the Konkani initially with Portuguese (1534-1661) and subsequently with English (1661-1947). Catholic Goans in Bombay/Mumbai are called Paowalla (person selling bread/pao or paowalla/bakery business). (Pao is a Portuguese word for Bread, while Pav is a Hindi word for bread). Goans who traveled from Goa to Bombay (until 1961), had for many years to pass through Castle Rock, Karnataka, India, the frontier between Portuguese-held Goa and British-held India, with their Indo-Portuguese passports. A metre gauge railway line used to connect the Goan towns of Vasco and Margao with the rest of India and was the only rail link in the state till the Konkan Railway started services in the early 1990s. Hence, the Goan diaspora returning from Bombaim to Goa also influenced the Konkani language with English. The influence of English from Sawantwadi, Maharashtra State and South Canara, Karnataka State is less than the Influence of English from Goan diaspora in Bombaim/Bombay/Mumbai. Goan stage artist notable for their concerts and songs, also initially sprinkled their lyrics with Portuguese and English. Prominent stage artist such as late Mr. Alfred Rose and Ms. Lorna Cordeiro (Cordeiro means Lamb in Portuguese, lyrics included, Konkani, Konkani cum Portuguese (Song title "Lisboa", "Amor"), and more recently Konkani and English. Hence, the Konkani language has been influenced by Arabic, Portuguese, English and following liberation of Goa in 1961 with Hindi. The Bombay masala a medley of songs which is a product of Bombay, is famous among the Goan diaspora and well received in Goa. Also with the use of English as the Lingua franca and with South Canara coming under British Occupation many English words are also incorporated and have even replaced Portuguese words. Though insufficient for the immensity and urgency of the task, the means inherited from the past are not totally useless. It is true that colonizing nations were sometimes concerned with nothing save their own interests, their own power and their own prestige; their departure left the economy of these countries in precarious imbalance—the one-crop economy, for example, which is at the mercy of sudden, wide-ranging fluctuations in market prices. Certain types of colonialism surely caused harm and paved the way for further troubles.[19] On the other hand, we must also reserve a word of praise for those colonizers whose skills and technical know-how brought benefits to many untamed lands, and whose work survives to this day. The structural machinery they introduced was not fully developed or perfected, but it did help to reduce ignorance and disease, to promote communication, and to improve living conditions.[19] Portuguese words in Konkani (1510 through 1961)[edit] A native of Goa identifies oneself as Goenkar or Goenkan in Konkani, goês or goesa in Portuguese, as Goan in English, and Govekar or "Konkno" in Marathi. Catholic spiritual terms[edit] Local tradition says that Christianity was spread in Southern India by the Apostle Thomas,[20] following the death of Jesus Christ in the 1st century. In the early 16th century (1510), the arrival of the Portuguese traders and subsequently the great Spanish missionary Saint Francis Xavier, initiated the influence of Portuguese language on the Konkani Language, as observed in the religious practices and culture of Goans. Subsequently, in 1534 the Portuguese arrived in, Mumbai (formerly Bombay in English and Bombaim in Portuguese. The Portuguese were actively involved in the foundation and growth of their Roman Catholic religious orders in Bombay. They called the islands by various names, which finally took the written form Bombaim. The establishment of Portuguese foothold in Bombaim resulted in Goan diaspora in Bombaim. Christian religion was indoctrinated in Latin (300 AD). As Christianity spread to the western Europe, the Latin words were incorporated and/or adapted into Portuguese, Spanish and English languages, to name only a few. Hence, the original Latin words with Portuguese pronunciations were incorporated and/or adapted into the Konkani languages, following the establishment of Goa as a Portuguese colony (1510). The Catholic Goans continue to use the expanded vocabulary with Portuguese diction in daily prayers and in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, in the Konkani language. Thus over 450 years of Portuguese presence in Goa, India, has resulted in major differences in Konkani from the Konkni language. The influence resulted in Romani script for writing Konkani and moved away from the Devanagari script for Konkni. For the Hindus and Muslims in Goa, the use of Portuguese words was not required for the spiritual needs. Deus (Latin pronunciation: ['de??s]) is Latin for "god" or "deity". Latin deus and divus "divine", are descended from Proto-Indo-European *deiwos, from the same root as *Dyeus, the reconstructed chief god of the Proto-Indo-European pantheon.

Greek Zeus (?e?? zdeús; Aeolic Greek ?e?? deús) and Sanskrit ??? deva (God) or devi (Goddess). In Classical Latin, deus (feminine dea) was a general noun[21] referring to a deity, while in technical usage a divus or diva was a figure who had become divine, such as a divinized emperor. In Late Latin, Deus came to be used mostly of the Christian God. It was inherited by the Romance languages in French dieu, Spanish dios, Portuguese deus, Italian dio, etc. Konkani Utor Latin Verbo Portuguese Palavra English Word Vulgar Latin Verbo Etymology Aamen Amen Amén Amen Amén Spanish/French Old English, from Late Latin amen, from Ecclesiastical Greek amen, from Hebrew amen "truth," used adverbially as an expression of agreement[22] Alma Anima Alma Soul Alma/Spanish 1820, "temper" (usually in a hostile sense), from Latin animus "rational soul, mind, life, mental powers; courage, desire," related to anima "living being, soul, mind, disposition, passion, courage, anger, spirit, feeling[23] late 14c., from Old French comunion "community, communion" (12c.), from Latin communionem (nominative communio) "fellowship, mutual participation, a sharing," used in Late Latin ecclesiastical language for "participation in the sacrament," from communis (see common (adj.)).

Its size and consistency may vary, but typically it is distinctly triangular or tetrahedral in shape. Indian samosas are usually vegetarian and they originated in the state of Uttar Pradesh[48][49] Catholic Goans consume, goat, beef, pork and poultry products as well as fish. Muslim Goans consume most of these aforementioned produtcs with the exception of pork which is forbidden by Quran practices. Hindu Goans abstain the consumption of beef products because of the religious beliefs. Hence, goat, poultry and freshwater fish and seafoods are animal sources of protein for all Goans. Thus major influence in the cultural practices was consumption of beef and pork for Goan Catholics. Goan chamuças In Goa (India) and Portugal, samosas are known as chamuças. They are usually filled with chicken, beef, pork, goat or less frequently with vegetables, and generally served hot. Samosas are an integral part of Goan and Portuguese cuisine, where they are a common snack. A probably samosa-inspired snack is also very common in Brazil, and relatively common in several former Portuguese colonies in Africa, including Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, São Tomé and Príncipe, Angola, and Mozambique, where they are more commonly known as pastéis (in Brazil) or empadas (in Portuguese Africa; in Brazilian Portuguese, empada refers to a completely different snack, always baked, small and in the form of an inverse pudding).

Many Goans accompanied them on their voyages and hence lot of the sailing terms were incorporated into the diction. Indian seamen had been employed on European ships since the first European made the sea voyage to India. Vasco da Gama, the first European to reach India by sea (in 1498), hired an Indian pilot at Malindi (a coastal settlement in what is now Kenya) to steer the Portuguese ship across the Indian Ocean to the Malabar Coast in southwestern India. Portuguese ships continued to employ lascars from the Subcontinent in large numbers throughout the 16th and 17th centuries, mainly from Goa and other Portuguese colonies in India. Through the Portuguese and Spanish maritime world empires, some of these Lascars found their way to Britain, and were among the sailors on the first British East India Company ships to sail to India.[50] The Luso-Asians appear to have evolved their own pidgin Portuguese which was used throughout South and Southeast Asia.[51] Bombaim - bombaim - [bombay/mumbai] viaje - viagem - [voyage] mar - mar - [sea] praer - praia - [beach] Cidade - cidade [city] Cidadde de Goa - cidade de goa [city of goa] Ilhas Goa – ilha Goa – [island Goa] alto - alto - [high] Vaddo -aldeias - [village] Zon - Zona - [district] Comminudad - comminuda[community] Architectural terms[edit] Pared – parede – wall Galeri – galeria – gallery balcão – balcão – balcony Varand – varanda – verandah Miscellaneous words[edit] Govet – gaveta – drawer Pixol – pincel – brush Tizulo – tijolo – brick Kulchanv – colchão – mattress Burak – buraco – hole Sak – saco – bag Susegad – sossegado – quiet Sai – saia – skirt calção – calção – shorts Sabaun – sabão – soap Banc – banco – bench Julab – julapa – laxative Lilanv – leilão – auction Mest – mestre – carpenter/master Sorpotel – sarapatel – pork curry Source: A History of Konkani literature[52] [53] [54] French words in Konkani[edit] lafaddem – affair (from l'affair) cartus – cartridge parval – parole tamret – stool bankh -bench voltaire – rocking chair (from the French writer Voltaire) Kannada words in Konkani[edit] Aapa-from Kannada Appa meaning father Aaka -from Kannada Akka meaning sister Duddu - Money Rokhdo - Quick Poiso addko - Wealth Hallsande/alsando- Kind of bean Tantim - Eggs Kempu - precious stone,red Modd - cloud / storm Bagil - door Chilki - latch Badi- stick,or to beat up Bhenn-back (from Kannada bennu) Koyti-sickle from Kannada koy,to chop or cut Miravanuk-procession from miravanige Chalval-revolution from chalavali Veergal-hero stone from veerakallu Arabic - Persian words[edit] fasal - crop jawab - answer kabul - agree karz - debt chabuk - whip chugli - gossip dang - engrossed hak - right had'd - boundary hairan - harassed fakt - only dusman - enemy akkal - intelligence bhogos - pardon bandar - port barik - thin nazuk - delicate baag - garden arz - request ajap - wonder Knights of Columbus commissions and publishes The Gift of Black Folk: The Negroes in the Making of America by civil rights activist and NAACP cofounder W.

The Malagasy French Malgache are the ethnic group that forms nearly the entire population of Madagascar They are divided into two subgroups the "Highlander" Merina Sihanaka and Betsileo of the central plateau around Antananarivo Alaotra Ambatondrazaka and Fianarantsoa and the "coastal dwellers" elsewhere in the country This division has its roots in historical patterns of settlement The original Austronesian settlers from Borneo arrived between the third and tenth centuries and established a network of principalities in the Central Highlands region conducive to growing the rice they had carried with them on their outrigger canoes Sometime later a large number of settlers arrived from East Africa and established kingdoms along the relatively unpopulated coastlines The difference in ethnic origins remains somewhat evident between the highland and coastal regions In addition to the ethnic distinction between highland and coastal Malagasy one may speak of a political distinction as well Merina monarchs in the late th and early th century united the Merina principalities and brought the neighboring Betsileo people under their administration first They later extended Merina control over the majority of the coastal areas as well The military resistance and eventual defeat of most of the coastal communities assured their subordinate position vis à vis the Merina Betsileo alliance During the th and th centuries the French colonial administration capitalized on and further exacerbated these political inequities by appropriating existing Merina governmental infrastructure to run their colony This legacy of political inequity dogged the people of Madagascar after gaining independence in candidates ethnic and regional identities have often served to help or hinder their success in democratic elections Within these two broad ethnic and political groupings the Malagasy were historically subdivided into specifically named ethnic groups who were primarily distinguished from one another on the basis of cultural practices These were namely agricultural hunting or fishing practices construction style of dwellings music hair and clothing styles and local customs or taboos the latter known in the Malagasy language as fady citation needed The number of such ethnic groups in Madagascar has been debated The practices that distinguished many of these groups are less prevalent in the st century than they were in the past But many Malagasy are proud to proclaim their association with one or several of these groups as part of their own cultural identity "Highlander" ethnic groups Merina Sihanaka Betsileo Zafimaniry Coastal ethnic groups Antaifasy or Antefasy Antaimoro or Temoro or Antemoro Antaisaka or Antesaka Antambahoaka Antandroy or
