Description
“Mai kwabo spaghetti” a Hausa phrase that loosely translates to “cheap spaghetti” or “affordable spaghetti” in English. Here’s a breakdown:
-
“Mai” – owner or one who has something
-
“Kwabo” – a small unit of Nigerian currency (like a cent); often used colloquially to mean something cheap
-
“Spaghetti” – the pasta dish, usually used as-is in Hausa too
So “mai kwabo spaghetti” is often used informally to describe inexpensive or low-quality spaghetti, possibly sold by roadside vendors or made with very basic ingredients.
