With one "g" as in "Niger," it is the name of a river in Africa. With two "g's" as in "******," it is a term to describe an African-American.

In most cases, it is considered to be a term of abuse, but in some circumstances, it can have positive connotations, principally when used among African-Americans to refer to people or their own community.

if you mean the word with two gg's in it.. it means "a racial slur used to refer to dark-skinned peoples, especially people of African ancestry."

Niger is a country is "a landlocked sub-Saharan country in Western Africa, named after the Niger River. It borders Nigeria and Benin to the south, Burkina Faso and Mali to the west, Algeria and Libya to the north and Chad to the east. The capital city is Niamey."

What a wonderful question. Religion is, of course, the form that one's worship takes. Thus there are thousands of forms. Religion includes a system of religious beliefs and practices. The object of the religion may be false gods or the true God. Hence, there is false religion and there is true. Religion can get very fancy or remain simple. In the former case, such as it is today. In the latter case, such as it was in the Garden of Eden. What then is worship to me? How do I worship? To worship means to obey. And to obey means to worship. The two are intimately connected; indeed, they are coterminous and cannot be separated. Specifically, to obey the Sovereign Lord God Jehovah of Armies is to worship Him. I do my imperfect best in this regard. I fall on my face and get back up to try and try again. In the Garden of Eden, so long as they obeyed Jehovah, Adam and Eve were worshiping him. No temple, no Mosaic Law, no meetings. Simply leave the tree of the knowledge of good and bad alone. Simple. The minute they disobeyed, they stopped worshiping Jehovah. Same with the nation of Israel. The minute they attempted to practice a syncretistic religion they stopped worshiping Jehovah. The minute they made the golden calf, they stopped. And on and on. To worship is to obey. To obey is to worship. Hannah J Paul

The Spanish word ***** originates from the Latin word niger, meaning black. In English, ***** or neger became negar and finally ******, most likely under influence of French.
A word that worthless black people think only they are allowed to say without repercussion.

it's a VERY offensive term for a black person. It'd not polite, or nice, and it conveys hate and dislike. Nowadays, it is sometimes used as a greeting between friends, or a substitute for a cat-call. anyhow, it isn't a nice thing to say by a long shot

You've misspelled it. It should be spelled with two "g"s. It's a slang, derogatory term for a certain group of people, and looking at your picture, I don't wanna elaborate on it.
