Does anyone know what "o ide" means?? and what does it mean when they add "na" at the end- as in " Oide na" ? Thanks

Hi Zaina, "Oide" means "Come!" or "Please come!" As for "na" at the end, it's the Kansai Area equivalent of "ne". "Ne" at the end in Standard Japanese has several meanings but the main one is like "OK?" "Right?" in English. So, "Oide na" can be translated as "Please come, OK?" or "You'll come, won't you?â€
