How Do I Speak My Dialect-- Urhobo-- Fluently by eben28(m): 12:18pm On Aug 14, 2014
It pains me so much to find myself in a situation when I'm expected to relate with people of same tribe, but the language couldn't just flow out of my mouth.


Sometimes, I put up with the excuse that it's not my fault na since I grew up in a town in Lagos state where you have neighborhood of mixed ethnic group.

As I'm typing this right now, ashame dey catch me no be small.

Pls, I need your contributions on how to speak my dialect--Urhobo-- fluently.

thanks for your anticipated helpful comments

make a friend with a guy who is fluent in Urhobo. And start learning and speaking with him even though yours may be going upside down, continue and you will improve. Again, when you make calls to people at home try to muster some Urhobo language to them and you would be improving. How I which I know you it would have been much easier. But I am travelling out of Lagos very soon back home. SHALLOM

Yes o, I tried something like that but it didn't work out well. I pleaded with a girl in my compound to teach me but,... my brother, I really regret everything.

This girl just dey use the opportunity they insult me whenever she is discussing with her friends in Urhobo.
Chai... some girls are not good sha.

I was just forming as though I don't understand d language at all. I understand some out of all what they discuss among themselves. I even heard all about their affairs with men. Whenever they start their gossips, I will just relax and pretend as though I have no idea of what they are discussing.

After a while, I felt it's of no use staying around with them.

My brother, I didnt continue with it anymore cos of a friend of mine who fought against my plans of studying abroad. I had completed the necessary registrations with EFCMG then.
