Imade did not originated from Igodomigodo, ADE is a Yoruba word and it is used mostly as prefix or suffix in names just as imADE, ADEsua, ADEwole, ADElabu, orimolADE etc. Yorubas that migrated from Ife with Oranmiyan and they settled and mixed with the Aborigines in Benin with Eweka being the one who started the Obaship dynasty that birth the Benin empire, you people are just so funny with the way and matter you want to turn the history upside down. The Yorubas mixed and blend with those from Igodomigodo land well, instead to do your thing over there, you are appropriate all what you adopted from Ile Ife such as gods, I have seen Benins claiming they own the gods Olokun, Olosa, Sango, Ogun etc na wa o. If you people want to Practice some of this gods fine, we have people Practice This Yoruba gods even in Haiti, Brazil, and many Caribbean countries, they are not claiming they own it or it originated from them. In fact the way Benin people uses Ogun to swear, even we Yorubas the owner do not use it negatively like that, any small thing the Benin will say Ogun na gbo e or something like that. Ogun is not meant for swearing unnecessary Ogun is the god of Iron and it is meant for justice.

No one is holding you, they only respond to your lies...
Someone who might not even be a Yoruba created a thread to compare Yoruba and Edo words; you people turned it to your revisionist thread...
Have you been seeing Yorubas' obsessions with the related Itsekiris, Igalas and even their kith and kin in the North Central? It's always you Bini Yorubas always audio claim in your imagination... we have no business with Bini, Mr man.

You can as well ask me what is the meaning of Idowu I personally don't even know the literal meaning of Imade or Adesua in Yoruba, maybe some Yoruba with deep knowledge of names in Yoruba might know but what am saying which am 101% sure is that this are part of the influence not only the coming of Oranmiyan also the ages of intermariages btw Yorubas and the Aborigines of Igodomigodo birth. Let say Ile Ife + Idu/ Igodomigodo = Benin. I read one of your comments where you said Benin influenced Yoruba, I just laughed and I felt no need to reply because it will be going back and forth on this issues, I hope you are aware lots of Benins are bearing Femi as their names now right?? And with the way you Benin are going about trying to twist this things, there is every probability that the next 20-30 years we will see the Benin generation of that era claiming they own the name Femi and Yoruba adopted from them.

Who's claiming that Edo is Yoruba?

The OP is not Yoruba or Edo, but pointed out his observations. It seems you are invested in making an argument where it doesn't exist.

Etinosa123456:


Simple English what is the meaning of imade in Edo and the one for Yoruba... Do they have the same meaning?

Alba3:


1. Mama, ima(EY)= mother

De = to arrive, to come back

Imade = Mama is back, reborn

Other CY/EY/WY variations are Yetunde also Iyabọ

2. Imade = To pick crown

You are correct Ade mean Crown/Royalty, I have read lots of articles on the Ogisos and the coming of Oranmiyan influences the land and the culture, that's why culture and language is dynamic. In this pics below are examples of name people bear in Edo, you will find Ade as prefix or suffix, even Adedoyin, Adetutu, Adesusu, AdesUWA. This simply shows a fusion between the Yorubas (Ife migrants) + Idu/Igodomigodo the Aborigines of that land.

Irritant:


And same history Has it that Oduduwa is a Benin prince on exile in Ife.. the Yorubas could not pronounce his name Imadoduwa Ikaladeran and called him Oduduwa. By the way what’s the meaning of the name Oduduwa?

Louisboy22:
In Edo language, Imade is actuatually "Imadeyunuagbón" which means I did not fall to the expectation of the world.

Juliusmalema:



please throw more light on this.

OsamaB:


First of all, Yoruba is originally in reference to the Oyo empire and it was the name Hausa people called them (i.e. Oyoruba). Meaning an Ijebu man is Ijebu and Egba people are Egba.

Second of all, Edo was another empire and empires can comprise of different tribe of people who may not be the same. So, even the Benin empire of today can never lay claim of Ekiti or Ondo, even though they were part of the Benin empire. Even Bini and Esan people are different but know they have a history.

Third, the idea of calling people bastards to claim superiority is very weak. The British dismantled the empires and the Nigerian government cancelled history but that doesn't give you the right to insult people who you don't know.

Etinosa123456:


I wanted him to Compare the meaning whether they mean the same thing... He was already saying Benin copied imade from him

Yoruba people are united by common language, common anscenstor, common cult, common pantheon of gods,common history and common way of thinking, not necessarily by name

Abudu2000:
don't flatter yourself the reverse is the case bro.

Ideadoctor:
Oranmiyan who founded the oba dynasty, gave the name Benin, and those who descended through him are known by these name, but the term Edo is not found in Yoruba vocabulary, the logic there is that the ones called Benin carries oranmiyan blood, and oranmiyan is a Yoruba man

Oga.. they are words that don't mean the same thing...

Adesuwa (Benin)- one born in affluence
Adesewa(Yoruba)- crown of beauty

Stop ur attaché by force... We don't want u guys

Uchasa:
Yorubas should stay far away from Niger Delta..We know your plans.. Without our oil,your Alikaja,Otedola and Adenuga would've been paupers like the average Yoruba man that's why you all want to continue dragging other people's lands!!!
Please fellow Niger Deltans beware of this wicked tribe,let them stay in their 6 states and leave our lives alone.
Anytime they try claiming Edo again,school them about the origin of Lagos.

jneutron4000:
hahaha you honestly think Yoruba want to attach to you? If Nigeria divides today, We Yorubas will build a border wall at Ore
