Hello !

I am interested in Isoko langauge very much and I have been trying to find some pages/materials/books on Isoko. Unfortunatelly, it is really rare langauge and there is lack of materials on it. I would love to learn the langauge as my husband and in-laws are Isoko. My husband doesn't speak Isoko but I would love to show his how the roots are important. Please, guys could you help me somehow with any materials or maybe some of you can create a page with vocab and rules (even the basics ) of Isoko. Thank you in advance

hello tchako

Found this on the net, check out the isoko phonetics, really cool

although I must say this was recorded way back in 1962

Oh how I loff the Isokos! The Urhobos and them rest of Nigerians! One love Nigeria!

D truth is dat d Isokos and Urhobos are one. D Urhobos are different group of ppl with simillar language and Isoko is one of such group, like d Okpes, Udus, Effurun, Ujegwens etc. So dey are one. because of d oppressive and dominary attitude of some of dis groups, d Isokos decided not to b called Urhobo.
For political reasons and when dey want to fight their common 'enemy', it is den an Isoko man will remember dat he is an Urhobo.

Calamama: [size=14pt]Isokos and Urhobos are very different ethnic group....this is a partnership of equals not of subordinate and superordinate.
[/size]

Correct. And to that I will add Isokos are not a "sub-group" of the Urhobos...An Urhobo man will not even understand an Isoko man when he's speaking deep Isoko and vice versa...notwithstanding the Urhobos are our sister ethnic group.

I love Isoko gospel songs very much...Used to go catholic church with them in Bini...They love Igbo guys too.

Isoko waadoo! Am proud i can speak this language. Why is this thread not in isoko?

I have a friend who's fluent in his Isoko language.

The isoko launguage is diffrent frm dat of the urhobo. Although dey ve sum words similiarities. I can say the erowas are th oldest in d isoko land with a complete dfifrent lanquage of their own dat can neither b interpreted by d isoko's or urhobo's. although dey r not well recongnize, still they r in charge. Awi isoko wadoo!
