- Description
-
"Mbok" is a loanword from the Efik/Ibibio language that has become a staple in Nigerian Pidgin, primarily used as a plea or an emphatic way to say "please." It is often used when the speaker is tired of waiting or is desperately asking for a favor or an action to be taken. The tone can range from a polite request to a frustrated demand depending on the context of the conversation. It adds a layer of cultural flavor and urgency to a sentence that a simple "please" might not convey.
- Example
-
> Release it already Oversabi aunty. I don too wait mbok.
> Mbok, make una help me tell am say I no dey house.
> Don’t ever joke with a great artist mbok, dem get talent well well.
