"oghun" meaning in Yoruba

See oghun in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ō.ɣũ̄/
Etymology: Older form for the term salt only found in Northeast and Southeast Yoruba dialects. See Igala ómu, Ifè oŋu, proposed to be derived from Proto-Yoruboid *ó-ɓũ. The form likely referred to an indigenous salt, perhaps related to rock salt or halite, which was later replaced by salt imported from the North.
