Owo (Hand) Owo (Broom) Owo ( Town in ondo) Owo ( Respect) Looking at the correct spelling of most of the words we've all mentioned so far, we will see that not all have the same spelling in the real sense, considering the signs, syllables and stress that comes with each word. Imagine @kekakuz comparing Owo (money) and Owo (Hand) it so far apart and that is the uniqueness of YORUBA language 7 Likes |
