I have adopted the bad habit of saying ‘O’ at the end of sentences- i am working to break it. Also another thing i have learned from my parents/grandparents is saying “God forbid or Sha nuwa eh”. So at home if I were talking to my mom and i wanted to give an example of some situation taking place: Say for instance you (used arbitrary) went to get something and a car hits you and you end up in the hospital…. Before I finish speaking, my mom starts complaining, “Why do you have to use ‘you’? Why can’t you bless someone instead of cursing someone?” Then she she rebukes the sentences by circling her head with her fingers and then snapping her fingers and saying “God forbid” to the window- everyone else follows. My grandma will then scold for such a sentence and then a prayer follows with some praises to God.
