Hello everyone, I took a walk today to our big market here called itam market. This market is an everyday selling market but once in a week, a day is fixed for the main market day where traders from other states in my country bring in their goods.
Today happened to be the main market day, and everywhere was so busy.
I took some pictures which I am going to teach you how they are called in my native dialect.
Behind me is dry pepper, locally called ntuen in my dialect.
This is stock fish, locally known as ekporoko. This very local name sounds like you are speaking I tongues when trying to call it.
This is onions, locally known as ayim.
Here is casava flakes, locally known as garri.
Here is palm oil, locally known as adan-eyop.
Those are beans, locally known as akötí, and rice locally called edesi.
This is vegetables locally called nkoñ uboñ
This is fresh pepper, locally called ndek ntuen,and okra, locally called etike.
I will be back tomorrow to put in some words that mean more than just a spacefiller. I was disappointed Friday and Saturday to find the site mostly down as I tried to get #MarketFriday done. I promise to be back tomorrow and as a note, I have read them all but, after two of the comment being eaten, I decided if it ate this, I would be okay, but, I didn't want you to think I forgot you!
Thank you so much for taking the time to join the challenge! I appreciate the love and support you are giving to #MarketFriday! Without you and people like yourself, I wouldn't be able to have such a successful challenge! I know that at this time, it is harder to find something to fit the challenge. On a good day, it takes a lot of time and effort to be part of, so it means a lot to me that you participate. I hope you know that there is great latitude in what Market means. It can be typical of where you shop for food, or it can be a unique place that you visit. Thank you again for being a part of all this and I hope that you will, indeed, have a great day and week ahead! If you or any of your friends are in doubt about how to participate, this should clear it all up!
