What is the Yoruba word for Queen?

The Yoruba word for Queen is "Obinrin".

However, it's important to note that "Obinrin" is a general term for "woman" in Yoruba. To be more specific about a queen, you would need to add context, such as:

* Obinrin Oloye: This would mean "Queen" in the sense of a woman of high social standing, potentially the wife of a king or chief.

* Obinrin Alaafin: This would specifically mean "Queen" in the sense of the wife of the Alaafin of Oyo, the king of the Oyo Kingdom.

Ultimately, the most accurate translation would depend on the specific context and who you are referring to.
