Skanas: "Ten friends can't be friends for ten years"
according to what you have written which is Ten Friends & 10 Years, it is:
òré méwà kò lè seré fún odún méwà.
But there's a popular yoruba adage that says "ogún omodé kò lè seré fún ogún odún".

tongue

^^^ this is the correct parable.

@op, please modify your request to fit the original above. there`s no parable in yoruba language called "ten friends cant be friends for ten years". accept the interpretation given by kunle and find diacritics for it.

no, its not another version. lets be careful about applying our sense of social liberalism to culture and customs. the op version using 10 is inaccurate because it is unauthentic. 20 is not just a nominal number in yoruba language, it also has a cosmic definition and characteristics that are lackingin 10.

english people use base 10, yorubas don't. lets not get it mixed up please. grin
