Nigerian Words: Finding Sources by Luna2019: 11:39am On Jun 04, 2019 |
Hello, I'm trying to complete a research about words used in some West African countries. I still have difficulties trying to find the meaning and sources of some words, maybe the froum could help me? the following are supposedly words used in Nigeria: What's up? = irresponsible wheater man = poor man waka about = one who is always on the road small wife = second wife in a polygamous relationship bambam = buttocks drug = any food supplement If you have any sites or sample sentences for me I would very much appreciate it!!! Thanks! |
