Is it Ìtàfù or Tabili: What is table called in Yoruba Language?

The actual Yoruba word for “table” is unknown to most people. Do you belong to them?
It’s NOT “tabili,” hint
Did you know that Ìtàfù is the proper Yoruba term for “table”?

Yes. Although “tabili” is frequently used in ordinary conversation, it is essentially a borrowed term that is a Yoruba orthographic transcription of the English word “table.”
However, the genuine, real Yoruba term for a table is Ìtàfù.
In Yoruba, this frequently occurs: because foreign words have grown in popularity, we may forget or never learn the native terms.
So the next time you’re at home or in class, amaze someone with Ìtàfù instead of just saying “tabili.”
Today, walk around your home or classroom.
In pure Yoruba, can you list three household items?
