Yoruba 101 – read, write, speak

yoruba

 

I got the above from somewhere I can’t remember. Anyway, I just thought to do an interpretation for the ‘learners’ amongst us.

Odabo – Bye bye
Ejo – Please
Oti – no
Odaro – bye until morning
Ekurole – good evening
kilofe – what do you want
Ekaro – Good morning
meta – three
Beni – Yes
Ekasan – good afternoon
Eshe – thank you
Mio – I haven’t

question: what is the meaning of Ekojo?

    would it make a difference if ‘Ekojo’ was misspelled? What if it should have been “eku ojo”?

    @ SSD; even eku ojo…does that have a meaning? lol…anyway, yorubas can greet for any and everything…

    What of “ekojo” as in “bring it all together”?…lol
