Avoid Embarrassment Stop Calling It 'okra' It Is Wrong, See The Correct Word. by INVINCIBLECSP1(m): 8:20am On May 19, 2020 |
Many of us should be careful with the way we speak everyday, we all know that English is not our mother tongue we all have our respective native dialects. For we to look different, unique and presentable we must learn to pronounce some kinds of words. For example. Moi-Moi is called Bean pudding. Akara is called Bean cake Pap/Akamu is called Corn flakes. Today's teaching I will be telling us the original name of Okra. Okra is a nutritious with many health benefit it is rich in magnesium, folate, fiber and vitamin C, K1 and A. Okra is beneficial for pregnant woman, it also help to reduce blood sugar, control heat health, to avoid embarrassment the original name for Okra is Ladyfinger. In your closet or when been at home you can call it Okra but when outside you can be unique and different by calling it Ladyfinger. 1 Share
