Re: Other Names For A Fool In Yoruba by Nobody: 4:39pm On Sep 15, 2012 |
I just thought of something, Kandiikane or mukina please clarify this for me. I see on the above list "Suegbe" is on there. Didn't Emmerson have a song with a similar word in it called "Swegbe"? (sp??) does it mean the same thing? (as in 'fo0l') |
Re: Other Names For A Fool In Yoruba by kandiikane(m): 6:50pm On Sep 15, 2012 |
It doesn't mean fool(looking at the context it's used in) someone who is called a swegbe usually means someone wey get suwe(swear) as in cursed. It's hard to explain the exact meaning but that's basically it. When emmerson used it' he was insulting the politicians and people who were keeping the country behind with their suwe. |
Re: Other Names For A Fool In Yoruba by Nobody: 7:56pm On Sep 15, 2012 |
kandiikane: It doesn't mean fool(looking at the context it's used in) ohh ok. i understand. Thanks a million. |

Ahh the joy of yoruba swear words. Omugo Oponu so we nu. A rindin (I don't know if i spelt it right) Didirin suegbe Suganmu Omo penu Dopemu Olodo ra'bata Egun (I don't really like this word, because it is actually used to describe another tribe and the usage of it as a swear word is kind of mean.) |
