In terms of etymology, someclaim Samba originated fromthe Arabic words Zumba or Zamba. Otherssay it originated from theAfrican language Kimbundu and theKimbundu "semba", which is adance form and music style that wasactually one of the precursorsof samba). The word semba comes from“Masemba” which means “a touchof the bellies” an action thatdefines the Semba dance. Meanwhile,Brazilian folklorists haveopined that the word samba came from theKikongo word Semba,translated as umbigada in Portuguese, whichmeans "a blow struckwith the belly button". Traditional Sambainstruments includestrings (cavaquinho and various kinds ofguitar) and numerouspercussion instruments like the tamborim. Withthe influence ofAmerican orchestras since the Second World War andthe culturalimpression of US post-war music, samba also made useof trumpets,trombones, choros, clarinets, and flutes.
