"ò-sĩ̀mĩ̀lì" meaning in All languages combined

See ò-sĩ̀mĩ̀lì on Wiktionary

Proper name [Proto-Yoruboid]

IPA: /ò.sĩ̀.mĩ̀.lì/ Forms: Ò-sĩ̀mĩ̀lì [canonical]
Etymology: The term is found across several Volta-Niger languages, whose societies and languages likely developed along the Niger river for thousands of years. See Igbo òsìmìlì (“river”), Igbo Òsìmìlì (“Niger river”), Edo ohinmwin (“Niger river”). Perhaps distantly related to Yoruba omi (“water”). The /ɛ/ prefix in Yoruba may be a remnant of a plural form of this word, many words across dialects in Yoruba and Yoruboid languages will have an /o/ or /ɔ/ prefix, which may represent the singular form, and /e/ or /ɛ/, representing the plural form. This can be seen in other related languages including Edo and it is also used in Itsekiri. As Proto-Yoruba got rid of the use of plural and singular forms, descendant languages likely adopted either one of these forms. See ènìyàn vs. ọ̀nị̀yàn, ọnị vs. ẹni, for example.
