I know there's a story book by Disney that explains it but apparantly they're REALLY hard to find, so if anyone happens to have it and you'd let the rest of us know that would be great!!!!!!

Thanks for the link.

I don't have the book, but I've read somewhere that in the book Scar(can't remember his other name) tried to kill Mufasa or something by having some animal run into him or something like that but it backfired and hit him instead; giving him the scar~

Yes, Taka is the name of Scar before he got his scar. This was not made up by fans. It is in an official Disney Book in a Book Set called The Lion King: Six New Adventures. I know I posted somewhere at these forums about these books, and I wanted to copy and paste my reply because I didn't want to repeat everything all over again... But I couldn't find it. Anyways these books were made before The Lion King II Simba's Pride because in these books Simba and Nala have a son named Kopa. Anyways one book in the set is about young Scar and Mufasa and it is called A Tale Of Two Brothers. Yeah Scar's name is Taka, but after he got his Scar, he wanted to be named that from then on. This bookset is really rare and I'm lucky to have found a set on ebay because lots of TLK fans want this bookset. Look on ebay though, I'm sure you guys will find a set there every once in a while.

Disney made an official written sequel to TLK?
Or did i interpret the messages wrongly?

I was wondering too why Taka was used so often in TLKFAA.
Since it sounded so much like a Japanese name, i decided to check on 'Taka' 's meaning in Japanese... it means Hawk!

Yet in Swahili it means Dirt/Filth (what was it again?).
Such major differences for the meaning of a word with the same pronunciation in different languages.

Anyway, im glad Scar wasn't named Kovu

Hate and envy brought forth the darkness in Scar.
Fate, and mere fate, brought forth the darkness in Kovu.
I strongly believe they're different.
(Whoops! Off-topic)

Hence im glad Scar wasn't named Kovu, though he could easily have used the word for 'scar' in swahili for his name.

(Guess i tend to over-type senseless posts when its past bedtime...)

Well, in Finn that means behind!

Wow, those books look cool, i want them!!!!!!!!! but can't be botherd to find them so its my loss really.

I love finding out the etymology of the names in TLK, like i only recently found out that 'Sarabi' means 'Companion' in swahili!!!!

**unregistered user** · February 25th, 2004, 07:43 AM

Those books are worth a good look. Someone wrote a fan fic based on them, VERY good too! If I'm right that is =P Anyway you get to read about the ancestry from Mkase-Simba, pretty sure. For those who don't know...:

Mkase had Mfalme. Mfalme had Dhahabu. Dhahabu had Mohatu. Mohatu had Ahadi. Ahadi had Mufasa and Scar/Taka. And Mufasa had Simba. And Simba had Kiara (or Tanabi if you go by LK1 or Kopa if you go by the book =P )

*whispers* Personally, i never liked Kiara that much. I thought Kovu rocked though, he made LK2 good, admit it, admit it XD Okay.. got off topic *whistles and runs away from tomatoes*
