Ok, so now I wrote a little story, can you please correct! Also, don't judge the content, hehe, because it doesn't make too much sense. Ọjọ́ kan ní igbó - Mo rí ọba kìnìún ìgbà tí nrìn nígbó. Mo kí i. Kìnìún sọ: kí'lo dé o nsáko ní igbo mi? Mo dá kìnìún lóhùn: òfòfó nsọ pé àjẹ́ igbó nsọ ẹ dìbàjẹ́. Kìnìún: Ràrà, ò bẹ́ẹ̀. O yà mi lẹ́nu pé o nfẹ̀sun lọ mi. Mi: Kò buru, màá lọ bayìí, sùgbọ́n mo yòó sọ́ ẹ. Ẹ mọ̀ pé mo ní ibọn mi. (yes, gun ) Kìnìún: Ọ̀dẹ̀ oo! N ò tilẹ̀ mọ̀ pé o nbọ̀, níbo ni àjẹ́ rẹ wà? Mi: "Ẹ́rìn", a má rí. Lẹ́hin náà mo lọ s'íbi ọba ejó. Ọba ejó: "sss", nígbà wo ni o dé? Mi: Má seré. Níbo ni àjẹ́ wà? Ọba ejó: "ss", fún mi ewúrẹ́ kan, sì màá sọ fún. Also, I used "ẹ" because that's the honorific I was taught, and I'm pretty sure it's correct in standard Yoruba. Also, the "s" with dot won't show for some reason, so I changed it to "s". I also hope that it can be of help to Eze. |
