Mongo is borrowed cos it is originally from Asia. Guava is from South America etc.. I read one suggestion about the name of fruits in luo to be “Olemo” . I don’t think it is a general name for fruits, cos we have a fruit called “olemo”/ “nyuolem“pl. in anywaa language. Jat(o)= tree Nyedi = seeds Nyijeni = could refer to fruits Kothi = seeds reserved (selected) for sowing. Thank you 🙏🏾

It is true that many of the words for the different types of fruits we have today are originally from foreign languages. Nevertheless, please add to your list the following fruits in Acholi: 1. Oywelo 2. Ocuga 3. Olam- already in your list 4. Tugo( borasus plant). 5. le- ananas( Ananaci)- French 6. Ovacado-French in origin

When we say words are borrowed remember writing and language was founded in Nubia and Kemt so everyone else learn from this region including the Greeks and Europeans

Irene All those fruits were introduced to Luo Land,which explains the absence of their original names. Name Oceyo in English.

In Kenyan Luo, "fruit" translates to "olemo." I am having trouble finding a cognate for "nyik" in Kenyan luo. "Yat" is "yath" in Kenyan luo.

Papaya = Poi or popo 8. Pineapple = mananas 9. Oranges = machungwa 10. Jackfruit = n/a n/a is for fruits we do not have and therefor have no name for ...

Olemo is a general name for fruits in Kenyan dholuo. "Nyik yat" equivalent of Kenyan dholuo is "nyak yath" meaning fruits of a tree ....

@@lawrenceomondi77 thank you for helping me figure out that "nyik yat" would be our "nyak yath" meaning harvest or yield of the tree. For some reason that did not come to me.

You say Nyik is seed. Seed Kenyan Luo is "kodhi". Yat in Kenyan luo is "yath". Loosely translated it would be "koth yath". But for Kenyan luo, fruit is "Olemo".
