Salsa yoruba: ER IR, me te, stem changes, ordinals

This part will deal with all kinds of Afro-Cuban rituality in early salsa music. This will explain the references to witchcraft, religion, folk healing, illness, and herbs in various songs. You’ll see again about routines with vocab verbs ending in ER and IR, and a comprehensive account of verbs with vowel changes in the stems. You’ll know about words like ME and TE so often repeated in the songs, and ordinal numbers in Spanish (first, second, third, fourth…).
