Yoruba for "home". I don't see this word in my dictionaries, nor with this meaning on Google Books. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 03:57, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
- Its an adjective .... maybe there is an inflectional morpheme missing. Or maybe the inflection is there and the word for "home" as a noun is shorter. I know little about this language .... just throwing out ideas .... figuring that it is unlikely that its totally fictitious. —Soap— 17:49, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

- I apologize. I may be subconsciously importing habits from social media where it's OK to make comments with no helpful information just to call attention to a post. This post had been up for a few days with no reply so I thought maybe I would "upvote" it but I realize 3 days is not a very long time by the stanrdards for these pages. Now, in my defense, you gave me this same message a few months ago for a comment that I still stand by and believe was helpful, but I find myself apologizing for talkign too much elsewhere too so I know I need to limit what i say. I hear you and understand. In fact, in some cases I think people are are too patient with me. But I've babbled enough. Thanks, —Soap— 13:25, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

- Wordhippo.com[1] is a plausible source of this error. It translates residence as ile gbigbe. It looks like ilé is the real word for house if you reduce it to one word, not gbigbe. Vox Sciurorum (talk) 20:30, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
