How do you say Miss in Yoruba language?

There isn't a direct equivalent of "Miss" in Yoruba language like there is in English.

Here's why:

* Yoruba culture: Yoruba culture is more focused on family titles and respect for elders.

* Marital status: Instead of directly addressing someone as "Miss," Yoruba speakers would typically use titles like "Sister" (Arabinrin) or "Madam" (Iya) as a polite way to address someone regardless of their marital status.

* Addressing young women: You could also use the term "Iyalenu" which translates to "young woman" or "young lady."

The best way to address someone in Yoruba is to use a polite title that shows respect for their age and social position.

Example:

* Instead of saying "Miss Adebayo," you could say "Arabinrin Adebayo" or "Iya Adebayo."
