As a kid I used to watch a tv show called "Little Miss Jocelyn".(Jocelyn Jee Essien). She did a Nigerian sketch which they went for counseling. Their name sounded like umwokwopopo. However after watching your videos I now know they were actually called mr and Mrs O won o gbopo. Translates to Mr and Mrs expensive cheap. Your videos really help understand the language which is handy for me having igbo and yoruba family. Thanks Blessing 🙏🏼 Ikini odun keresimesi.
I love these videos please do a part 2, and YES bring your mother back so she can teach us how to pray in Yoruba I loved your mom... and of course we miss you too (well I do at least)
These videos are so helpful, I’ve just subscribed! I was brought up in the UK and can understand Yoruba pretty fluently but for some reason just can’t speak it very well and i also find my fluency is going downhill now that I no longer live with my parents😭 Have you ever though if doing podcasts because I think sometimes what I’m missing on top of lessons is just being able to hear Yoruba on the frequent!xx
Hey Naomi! You're not alone, i find a lot of people understand it pretty well but it's the speaking that they have a problem with. I haven't actually considered podcasts, i think the closest thing I have at the moment is the videos where I just talk Yoruba throughout and subtitle them xx
Ibukunoluwa💎, your pretty smiling face makes all of 💐your videos a pleasure to watch and listen to. I am enjoying your work. Ogo ni ti Ọlọrun #OuterBeautyReflectsInnerBeauty
Pineapples, thank you for your tutorials, please what's the difference between mo lo owo and mo no owo, in your previous class of homophones, you said I have money is mo lo owo,now I hear mo ni owo?
@@DiamanteBox Um, ok. I have been studying and singing orisha cantos in Lukumi (Cuban Yoruba), that they sing in Cuba. I hope I don't annoy you, but I include here in this reply the words to a very well-known ( in Cuba) Canto to Elegba ( because I am curious to know what you think of it), it goes like this: "Bara suwa yo; omo yalawa'na/ Maa ma ke'ni ir'awo ee/ (repeat)/ O Bara suwa yo, Eke ee, Esu Odara, omo yalawa'na / Mama ke'ni ir'awo ee". I have typed in the words without the many accent marks, because I don't know how to. What do you think? Have you ever heard of Elegba (also spelled Eleggua)?

Nice video! Please do the Lord's prayer in Yoruba & also translate simple words like evil, the blood of Jesus, etc. Thanks x
The word "loa" (spiritual entity) in the haitian voodoo Comes from Oluwa.
I'll tell you something funny about not getting what you want: it might be a setup for eventually getting what you need
I will like to see a how to pray video especially the praises/exaltations to God
Great video!! Could you do a lesson on how to pray in Yoruba
Thank you! Will do!
How do you say "God Bless you." ?
Please do the prayer video 😘😘 ese

Did you ever do a How to pray video?
I actually haven’t but I will now
Your name is beautiful and it has great meaning. My Yoruba name is a but similar :)
So, is Blessing your middle name or you just translated Ibukun to English?
The latter

Ese gan fun awon oro to dun yi!!
@@DiamanteBox Otitọ ni
I thought his name was Iye
Pineapples, thank you for your tutorials, please what's the difference between mo lo owo and mo no owo, in your previous class of homophones, you said I have money is mo lo owo,now I hear mo ni owo?
Yes that’s because sometimes in yoruba ‘ni’ is contracted to L so it means the exact same thing
@@DiamanteBox Okay,thanks
I really believed that you missed me @diamante ... sad face
Of course I missed you!!
"ni " in yoruba or "Gni" in Ewe to Say "is " in English. Also "Ku" in yoruba or "éku"/"Ku" in Ewe mean The same thing : die/ dead...
WHY don't you talk about Yoruba religion? The orishas? Ase…...
David Parker I don’t know much about it but I’ll do some research

Oops. I just watched your video "Yoruba Creation Story". Now I'm embarrassed. Sorry. Never mind.
