Pronunciation edit
Noun edit

- Ọlọ́un á kẹ́ dede ẹni ― God will care for all of us (Ijebu)
Usage notes edit
This noun often looks and acts as a qualifier or determiner, and while usually before nouns, can occasionally come after. Some examples:
- Dede olùkù mi fẹ́ràn ẹ̀bà jíjẹ. ― All of my friends love to eat eba.
- Ìgbà dede ― All the time
However, it is not a traditional adjective as when it's combined with subject pronouns, it becomes ungrammatical and must be used with the possessive pronouns, showing that it's a noun in the spoken varieties of the Èdè-Yorùbá-Ìṣẹkírì continuum. An example:
- Dede ẹni yún Èkó. ― All of us went to Lagos.
In the example above, the possessive pronoun, ẹni (“our”), instead of a (“we”), as Dede a yún Èkó would be ungrammatical.
Derived terms edit
