Am just wondering, the word “christmas“ will be spoken in virtually all the dialects in Nigeria. In my father-tongue Idoma,it is called “esimesi“ while in my mother-tongue yoruba it is called “kirisimasi“. How do you call it in your own native dialect(s)?

Op, it's called Keresimesi in yoruba(not kirisimasi)
