dayokanu: Adiye or AdireI vehemently disagree. Any Yoruba man/woman that call a fowl 'adire' is suffering from speech disorder. Its called adiye. |

Okiki_Oluwa: I vehemently disagree. Stop it. Some Lagosians (who are indigenes of Lagos) can't say their "r", so they call it adie. We Ekitis call it Adiye. 1 Like |

soye35: Well in my own lang(ondo),we call fowl ajie,while yoruba parapo call it adie and not adiye. Wait, your Ondo people can call it ajie (NEVER heard of that), but other Yoruba dialects can't call it "Adiye"? Hmm. Ekiti = Adiye. |
