Re: Whats The Eglish Meaning Of Ekule by Nobody: 10:21am On Nov 01, 2016 |
Ekule = welcome Ekaabo = welcome Difference is; Ile = 'house' (So the person entering uses "Ekule" when greeting those he meets at home). Abo = 'return' (so those at home say "ekaabo" when greeting the person who just returned.) |
