Unit 15: Getting information about someone 201 1111 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 1111 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 4222 Language points Asking about someone’s last name Yoruba culture is patrilinear. This means that inheritance comes from one’s father side and, when a woman marries, she adopts the family name of her husband. The family name is usually the last name of the father. As a result, if you want to find out someone’s last name, you literally ask for the person’s father’s last name or if the person is a married woman, you ask for the last name of her husband. For example: Kí ni orúko≥bàbá rõΩ? What is his father’s name? Kí ni orúko≥o≥ko≥rõΩ? What is her husband’s name? Another way to find out someone’s last name, having established their first name, is to use that first name in asking for the last name. See the short dialogue below. A: Kí ni orúko≥oΩ$rõœ rõ? What is your friend’s name? B: Orúko≥rõΩni Toœ$põœ. His name is To≥põ. A: Toœ$põœ kí ni? What is To≥põ’s last name? (lit. To≥põ what?) B: Toœ$põœ O¸˘ßoœ$. To≥põ O˘ßo≥. How to ask “how long?” If you want to know how long someone has been doing something or living somewhere, you will need to use láti ìgbà wo? For example: Làtí ìgbà wo l’o ti n; dúró de Tunji? Since when have you been waiting for Tunji? Wákàtí méjì sõœhìn. The past two hours. Làtí ìgbà wo ni ó ti n; sùn? Since when has she been sleeping? Wákàtí mésànán sõœhìn. The past nine hours.
