( You better wake up.....oloorυn iya! (9) Yago lona funmi jooor.....arindin! (10) Iwo ni mounpe.....aditi! (11) Where are you coming from? .....Onirinkurin! (12) stop writing on d wall.... Baseje! (13)U forgot what I told u just now.....alakogbagbe! (14)So the one you eat is not enough.....olonje iya! (15)Who put your mouth there.....Saliu elenu gbooro! (16) Is that where I asked you to put it.....abunu! (17) I know you are laffing now.....oniyeye! Jst laugh it off, even if you don't understand NB:Pls I don't know if I've placed it in the right section. Lalasticlala over to you!
