So i decided to check google translate for the translation in our native Languages and this is what i found, i think there is a lot of mismatch or error WAMBLE = AHỤ (IGBO) PHOSPHENES = NDỤMỌDỤ (IGBO) VOCABLES = ECHICHE (IGBO) = GABARI (HAusa) = AWỌN NIPA (Hausa) INTERROBANG = AHỤ (IGBO) GRIFFONAGE = AHỤRỤ (IGBO) CRAPULENCE = MGBE (IGBO) = GASKIYA(hausa) = AGBARA (yoruba) |
