[@keishamcdonald6130]

Would it make a difference if you are talking to or about your husband/dads relatives. For example you said grandma is “Iya Mamma Mi”, would this change if it’s not your mum’s mum but instead your dad’s? I am Caribbean and I’m trying to teach myself and my children basic Yoruba as their dad can only understand it and not speak it.

[@DiamanteBox]

Yes! You're right, it changes with your dad, so it would be Iya baba mi, baba baba mi!

[@tomiwaade7937]

Can you tell us how to say cousins in part 2

[@DiamanteBox]

Tomiwa Ade there is no direct word you could either call them egbon aburo or you would say 'omo egbon mama mi etc you would explain the relation Literally

[@adeyemikolapo2158]

Tomiwa Ade there's no direct translation of cousin... or you can say "omo aburo/egbon baba/mama mi" = "child of my Dad's/Mum's sibling (either older or younger)... omo= child aburo= younger egbon= elder baba/mama = father/mother mi = my

[@Tiktok_Reddit]

@@DiamanteBox” oba kan “ not oba as in king

[@jyotiraiADMT-]

in nepali we say baba to our dad

[@NewwinePlatter]

I call my mom maami!

[@DiamanteBox]

Aww that's so cute!

[@rejoiceoluwadola2773]

what about papa for dad is dat possible

[@DiamanteBox]

Sure you can

[@rolandlemoynes1770]

Is it ok to say iyanlá as grandma?

[@tomiwaa9570]

Iyá agba is more correct

[@DiamanteBox]

Yes Iya Agba is best

[@ipaja5515]

ekale gbogbo yin. so u said we say baba/iya oko mi to the husband's sibling to say brother/sister in law, so is it the same when talking about your wife siblings?

[@DiamanteBox]

Ekale o. It’s not the same for the wife siblings. You might just call them Ana mi

[@seven777fortyfive9]

Nephew niece

[@DiamanteBox]

Omo Aburo mi - My younger siblings child Omo Ebgon mi - My older siblings child Yoruba is not a gendered language so there is no distinction for nephew and niece. You would just specify if it's Obirin or Okunrin

[@jordan9212]

Arugbo Ojo

[@googleuser612]

How do you say Grandma(dad's mom)??
