Just try sign language, the one that deaf and dumb speak using their hands and other body parts, imagine trying to tell a girl that u want to have a crouch with her, what u need to do is just fold ur left hand fingers to from a hole, the put in one of your right hand finger in it and trust for like 2 to 3 time and u are done, no need speaking big grammar. A very sweet and easy t earn language.

Tomiwa Damola: I think Hausa is the easiest followed by Yoruba. Yoruba is very easy once you understand the tones.

U are very correct... Hausa is the easiest language to learn.. I learnt it completely while at borno within four months... Sweet language

My lang Esan (Ishan) still dey hard me to learn. Grew up in the East came back to Esanland it was jus difficult for me. Then i went to Akure and Yoruba was easier for me. So ama vote for YORUBA as easiest. I av also tried Idoma (NYSC) and Ibo

chi4ik: I'm an IGBO but Hausa Language is very simple to Learn followed by Yoruba.... Igbo is very hard to learn but when U finally learn it, it very sweet to speak $ it has so many proverbs...
I concur with you; Hausa Language is one of the simplest Nigerian languages. If you understand English, then you can easily learn Hausa because it has Noun, Pronoun, adjective, verb, adverb, preposition as well as other part of speech like the English Language. It also has singular and plural.

Hausa is very easy to learn follow by Yoruba. I had tried learning Igbo but failed because my instructors were selfish. Anybody out there WILLING to help? I really want to learn either Hausa or Igbo this year.

swhiss: I'm an Igbo guy
Hausa is the easiest Naija language to learn and
Yoruba is the hardest (sounds like they are
fighting,too much Yoruba Yoruba , trust me you don't
want to learn it ) ,the accents and emphasis in Igbo
and Yoruba will cause a learner to bite his tongue.
Hausa is more free flowing,very romantic sounding
and is very light on the tongue.

ur actually wrong, yoruba is actually easy to understand, learn etc. evri1 has a clip of a yoruba knowledge, apart frm being yoruba its actually fanimorous. ur judgement coulc have been probably uve been living wif yorubas for so lng.

Yeah with yoruba rap is easy. I mean check out naija hiphops today yoruba is always just it. Besides if the language is studied carefully, u will realize a vowel usually comes after a consonant and followed by a consonant again..that makes it really easy to learn and speak. Another such language is hausa..easy too but some language like I-g-b-o where 1 consonant is followed by 3-4 vowels including nostril vowels...chei..na hell. I'm neither of these 3 tribe but I just say the truth.

Which word in Igbo has a consonant followed by 3-4 vowels sequentially

Sorry.
We own the mainstream nollywood.
The one the world knows .
The one that gives fame.
The one that exports Igbo culture to the world.
Igbos are good.
.
Igbo spoken living in bondage of 92 shook the world, pls who knows abt Yoruba movies in naija aside yorubas.
The other day, they were a cussing Igbo ppl of wrong subtitles in Yoruba movies and I ask, are we the ones even making subtitles?

so what?
What abt igbos that appear in Yoruba movies? Do u see igbos claiming yoruba nollywood?
Igbonollywood diversified in the 90s into English and Igbo, with an English preponderance,.
The same Andybest, divine touch,amaco etc that produce the mainstream nollywood movies are also the producers of the Igbo spoken movies.
But they dont produce Yoruba and Hausa movies.

To be sincerey, yoruba is the easiest language to learn, try to watch the white(oyinbo) that are in Nigeria, they all understand Yoruba very well...e.g Kayode oyinbo(nollywood/hollywood/celebrity), he speaks Yoruba fluently... I also stay @ a new site in Lagos and almost 5 white men and women live beside my house and i also work with some of them @ their factory, 76% of them speaks Yoruba fluently.
On ma own opinion, Yoruba is the easiest!!!

Mtchew.
Are the white men learning Yoruba from sokoto? U said Lagos, so what's the big deal .
They interviewed some white men in Igbo Lang at Cultural center Enugu, last yr.
Its not a big deal either cos they have lived in Enugu for 8 yrs.
