(Pronounced ASHO EYBEE)
Nigerian outfits made from matching fabric to be worn by a group of people to a party, wedding, or funeral as a uniform. Wearing a certain aso ebi identifies the group of wearers. For instance, at a wedding, all the bride's friends might wear blue and gold, the bride's family might wear white and gold, and the groom's friends might wear black and pink, and so on. Usually at weddings, the various fabrics for the aso ebi are decided by the bride, and are then announced to all the guests months in advance so they can prepare their outfits. Guests are usually expected to buy the aso ebi from the bride, but close friends and family members and certain prominent individuals may be presented with the aso ebi as a gift. Aso ebi for parties and funerals are generally simple, but aso ebi for weddings may involve many complex changes with entirely different aso ebi for different days of the wedding, and for the reception.

My five best friends and I all wore aso ebi to my sister's wedding.
I know I was invited to the wedding but I can't afford the aso ebi so I'm not going.
What stunning aso ebi!

A certain debater who somehow defeats all overpowered teams against all odds; a unimaginable victory.

A common curse in Bulgaria. Translates as "Go fuck your mother".
Bulgarians are radical, so it's not enough to say "Fuck you(rself)".

John: I should add "Ebi si maikata" in Urban Dictionary, pretending it means "Good morning" and use a Russian name instead of a Bulgarian one in the example.

This is a very polite and formal way of expression in Bulgaria . Some may call it a synonym of I respect you

They are a disgraceful person. They hurt me in ways I cannot begin to tell you all, generally eby's are just menaces and just ask for help all the time but dont give anything in return. I am shaking.
