Ògìdán — Tiger

I know there's a lot of controversy about Tigers not having a name in Yoruba, But we don't have to live in the past, There are tons of animals that don't have names in English too, But somehow, The English people have find a way to create new names for animals and newly discovered animals!

We can emulate the same thing too, Instead of just arguing every time about Tigers not being native to Yoruba land

So I've taken it upon myself and Have chosen to call Tiger, Ògìdán in Yoruba

Ràkúnmí/Ìbákasiẹ — Camel

Do you know that the actual name for Camel is actually Ìbákasiẹ? Ràkúnmí is a borrowed name from the hausas and overtime, it has been normalized as a Yoruba name for Camel, We have lost in touch with our culture so much

So many words has been forgotten, but I am bere to change that!, so next time you see a camel, Call it ìbákasíẹ


Ràkúnmí/Ìbákasiẹ — Camel
