Ah, I know that one too. If you don't mind asking, which area do you hail from?

The list is endless. While having a telephone conversation with my mother few months ago, a friend overheard me use the term 'utu ohu'... I actually said:
"...omekata were utu ohu ya ahu ha ka enuigwe n'ana dakwasi nwoke ofeke ahu, onyuo nsi oku..."
My friend said he couldn't believe I was using the most vulgar words while speaking to my mother...little did he know that 'utu ohu' in my home town simply means 'buttocks'.

Chineke God of Umunwayi!!!  Is that what I think it is? Or perhaps you are a very good dancer and people get carried away while they watch your excellent gyration to the beat of Tony One Week's gyration tracks?
