MyopicMods:Its called omomo in Benin ... Not omo
I've never heard of ugbo used in Yoruba... Its always igbo This is wrong... Erha is used as father in Edo not Yoruba
Iye and yeye are not the same that it can be corrupted It could be that due to the influence of Benin in the eastern Yoruba states, that was how the word yeye entered the Yoruba vocabulary In Igbo ,its called Onu
I don't know the meaning of the rest... Cc: Etrusen 4 Likes 1 Share |

Unclekayfarms: Sango is not a Benin word Omi and amen doesn't sound alike Iyi in Benin means established law... According to the first dictionary by Ajayi Crowther, Ologbo doesn't mean Cat.. Most of the words apart from pepeye don't mean the same thing... Goat means ewe in Benin... NOT ovuko The Benin doesn't have word x in its vocabulary Updating 10 Likes 1 Share |

Etinosa12345: all this Yoruba people just sit down to compose rubbish even if most of the word mean the same thing it only shows how African tribes are close either through trade or meeting for example can we now say Benin is from Igbo because "unu and Onu sounds alike" ? or can we now say Yoruba's are from Hausa or Fulani because some word sounds alike in both tribe ? if a Yoruba man a particular word is theirs I as an Edo man can also say that particular word is ours after all Ondo,Ekiti,Ogun,Lagos, and Osun were undeniably influence by Benin the only state this likely free from Benin is Oyo. the only historical meeting between Benin and Oyo was at Otun ( Ekiti state) through Iyase Ekpenede. Benin was undeniably in existence before even the Ekalederhan/ Oduduwa period which has caused historical spark between both tribe can we now say Benin never had a language before this period? definitely NO. it is undeniable that all tribes in Nigeria came across each other in history one way or the other that is why we have some similarities but you cannot just decide to say a particular word belong to your tribe because others used same word making them a descendant of your tribe. language exchange among various Nigeria tribe are among what transpired in ancient time so it is only a clouded tribal bigot that will come online to make baseless rant my bro Etinosa1234 leave this one make he dey deceive himself. 16 Likes 2 Shares |

Etinosa12345: you are correct. personally I believe the Yoruba's adopt some of our words just as we adopt some of their words which makes it a fair share even just as the Igbo adopt some Edo and Yoruba words and both adopting Igbo words these are what makes us unique as a people but some tribal bigot nor go let person heard word especially the Yoruba people I don't see reason why one clown will come online to make nonsense rant. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Etinosa12345:From Kogi, Lagos, Kwara, Oyo, Ondo, Ekiti, Osun, Ogun reach Benin republic all our Yoruba parents refer to Benin as Ado unlike Ubinu which is derogatory. The Yorubas that migrated into Igodomigodo saw unoccupied lands and called it "Ado" which means our new settlement. It's now the Yorubas start calling it Edo unlike our parents. We have Ado yam meaning Edo yam variety We have Ado pepper We have Ado Plantain etc all named after Edo products in d southwest. 4 Likes |
