N'Dour
N'Dour (also Ndure, Ndour, or Ndur ) is a typical Gambian and Senegalese patronym of the Serer people. They are the same people but because the French colonised Senegal and the British colonised the Gambia, there are variations in spelling but pronounced the same way.[1] They share the same surname with the 15th century Serer King of Saloum Maat Saloum Mbegani Ndour (reigned from 1494) also known as Mbegan Ndour.[2]
People surnamed N'Dour/Ndure include :
- Alassane N'Dour (born 1981), Senegalese football player
- Youssou N'Dour (born 1959), Senegalese singer and percussionist
- Viviane Ndour, Senegalese singer and sister-in-law of Youssou N"Dour
- Rumun Ndur, Nigerian-born Canadian hockey player

gollark: I don't think this is actually true though. Prices of technology in terms of hours of work have gone down a lot, and the power of it has gone up.
