Did you know II…?

Did you know that the yoruba word “adelebo” which means a woman with children is literarily “a de labour (room)” meaning someone who has been to the labour room (for child delivery)

I actually thot it meant someone who has been to the house (ile) and returned lol. I was so wrong.

Wole, Thanks for this insight .
