Igbo Wedding Attire: The Bride + Groom

 





Other words used:


Ọla olu – necklace. "ọla" typically represents Jewellery in Igbo language.

We call the necklace/beads ‘esuru.

For necklace, we say ọla olu…

So Ọla Ukwu /aka – wrist band or wrist jewel.

Ọla Ukwueze (anklet) na ọla aka (bracelet)

And in northern Igbo bracelet is called Mgba n’aka.

Also mgbaji ukwu we call Jigida, Jigida – is an Hausa loanword.

So earings are also referred to as ‘iyori nti’/ iyeri ntị in some parts of Anambra state. Although some people doesn’t put “nti” in the phrase. It’s just “iyeri”

I agree to this and Akwa Ọcha as well…that’s for the typical Igbo (wedding cloth).
