Good morning,

I would truly appreciate it if someone could translate this sentence from Yoruba to English:

Ko ma lo sun, abi?

From my understanding, it means "You're pushing me away, right?"

What would be an appropriate response like "What is this related to?" or "Message me" in Yoruba?

Thank you!

Ko ma lo sun, abi = He/She should (not) go to sleep, right? (The reason i wrote he/she is that same expression is used for male and female, then "lo" could me "go" or "not" depending on how it sounds.

Yes, the numbers are not easy.

But you have simplified versions like this:

For example:

10. Ìdì kan
20. Ìdì méjì

23 now turns to ìdì méjì l'ẹ́ta.

Literally: ten times two plus 3. So they are much simpler, but it's good knowing both.

Copy of my post in another thread about colors: (I forgot the dots here though).

Yellow - àwò èsè
Orange - àwò osàn
Blue - àwò sánmà or àwò àyìnrín
Green: àwò ewé
Red: àwò pupa
Purple - àwò aró
Pink - àwò pupa fééré
Brown - àwò ara
White - àwò funfun
Black - àwò dúdú
Silver - àwò fàdákà

I have another question. What is the general term for someone who plays? I know there are different words for playing certain things like gba boolu and fon fere, but is there a general term for a player? I was told it was osere, but now I'm being told it's wrong.

As someone said earlier, Yoruba words are usually developed base on description.

"Player" can have different forms based on description:

Elere - Used for those playing/taking part in any physical entertainment activity
Osere - Used for someone entertaining by intellectual/oral performance (e.g. acting, comedian, poet etc.)
Agba - Used for those playing/taking part in an activity that involves hitting something (e.g. football, tennis etc.)

So I think all works but Elere is the strongest.

I have never heard the usage of "Alare" or "Adije" as others highlighted.

To my amazement , Yoruba ancestors were a Race with knowledge of names given to all nature beings and plants they came in contact with.

And yes,feminine and masculine exist inYoruba animals as found in mankind .Even gave names to acquactic animals accordingly to their land kinds. It is such a bewilderment.
