Reconstruction:Proto-Yoruboid/ó-ɗú

Etymology
The etymology of this term is unclear. Westermann reconstructs the term for "name" to. It is not clear if this Proto-Yoruboid term is derived from this reconstruction, however, descendant terms with the /r/ root makes it more likely it is derived from this. The conversion from /d/ to /n/ or /r/ thus is possible. See cognates with a /d/-related root, 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬 For cognates with an /r/ or /n/ root, see 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬.

Other Volta-Congo languages also maintain a /w/ root, it is not clear if such roots are also cognate, see 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬
