Meaning of greeting
Greeting is a way of showing respect to people and appreciating them. Greeting is very important in Nigerian culture. We use greeting to show respect and also to show where we come from. Greeting is part of our culture. This is because greetings are different from culture to culture
Various ways of greeting in our society
There are various ways of greeting or showing respect to elders and other people. These various ways are according to gender (whether male or female) and ethnic groups. We shall discuss these ways of greeting according to the three major ethnic groups in Nigeria. These are Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa.
Yoruba
The Yoruba are the people who live in the south-western part of Nigeria. They are the main people in Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Osun, Ondo, Kwara, Kogi and Ekiti states. They can also be found in some parts of Edo State. The males (boys and men) prostrate (lie flat on the ground) to greet elders.
The females (girls and women) kneel on the ground to greet elders. A young woman kneeling to greet an elderly woman.
The Yoruba also greet according to the time of the day. The day is divided mainly into three. The greetings for each time are as follows:
1 Morning – E kaaro (Good morning)
2 Afternoon – E kaasan (Good afternoon)
3 Evening/Night – E ku irole / E kale (Good evening) Igbo
