Synonyms: Yoruba Varieties and Languages - sèview map (english: to cook, boil), now deemed dialects of Yorùbá in Nigeria (i.e. Southeast Yorùbá, Northwest Yorùbá, Central Yorùbá, and Northeast Yorùbá), have converged with those of Standard Yorùbá leading to the creation of what can be labeled Common Yorùbá. It can be assumed that the Standard Yorùbá term can also be used in most Nigerian varieties alongside native terms (Funṣọ Akere, 1977), especially amongst younger speakers. This does not apply to the other Nigerian Yoruboid languages of Ìṣẹkírì and Olùkùmi, nor the Èdè Languages of Benin and Togo, hè (Ìkálẹ̀) Derived forms: oúnjẹ sísè [cooking, food, lifestyle], sísè (english: cooked, cooking), àsè (english: banquet)
