  1. Onions! I’m going to Lagos in June with my friend’s family who are Yoruba. Since we will be staying with family, I’m glad I saw this video.

  2. Onions! ❀️ I have invited my friend and friend β€˜s mum for dinner so I’m trying to get ready to not offend her in any ways and so she may feel welcomed and cared for! Thanks for helping me understand and know what I’m supposed to do! Auntie, kneeling, right hand and pick up her dish…I’m kind of ready haha πŸ˜‚

  3. ONIONS! I'm so glad I came across your page in my feed. So much helpful content, and you're a pleasure to watch too, with how you share! Makes it digestible for those of us who aren't Yoruba.

    For the first time, I am meeting a mother and father, Nigerian elders, in a couple of weeks, and will kneel to show respect.

  4. Blessing I need your help. Both of my parents are Yoruba people and I call my mother's cousin Uncle Friday and his wife Auntie Gladys. Is that wrong? If it is please tell me what to call them ejo mo bey

  5. My husband is Yoruba and I kneeled when I first met his mum… I love the culture and have been studying Yoruba and pidgin constantly just so I can communicate more clearly … Remembering what I've learned is wahala! Love your page and help, Ose. Onions πŸ˜‰

  6. Alubosa. 😁😁
    Very great!! Will be good to distinguish that Yoruba has different types of pronouns such as regular pronouns and possesive pronouns. That's why there is "o" (younger person) and also "tire" or the contraction form "'e" (younger person).
