Translation from African language

Post by Sergio Macías »

Hello

There is a commercial advertisement on Spanish TVs of Carlberg beer where some Africans dance sing the word "kulu ngile" many times.

At the end, it is written: Carlsberg, probably the most kulu ngile beer in the world

(or something alike, but kulu ngile is correctly spelled).
Which the language and the exact meaning of this expression?

I have searched Internet but I didn't find any clear evidence.
Thank you for your help.

You can maybe try with a translator but for African languages, there is
not a lot of persons, maybe nobody...

Hi Sergio,

You could go to http://www.carlsberg.com. On the list of local sites you will find Spain as well, and there is an e-mail address for contact. Just ask them, they should know!
