Urhobo
The language of the Urhobo people of Delta.
Urhobo in Creeks is spoken by people who grew up saying it, word by word and line by line, with the same 36 stops as every creek, from the greeting at the gate to a whole conversation with an elder.
First words
- Mígwó
- The greeting for an elder. Literally, I kneel.
- Vrẹn dó
- The elder's answer. Rise.
- Amẹ
- Water.
