I think its because there's no "H" in the Yoruba language so people try to compensate on way or the other. |

*rolls eyes* I think it's funny how people constant whine about H0-factor by Yoruba people when other tribes are guilty of worse offences "Final Yah" instead of Final Yea[b]r[/b] by a certain group n ko? Abeg |

This thread is about H factor, not "elu" and "emu" accents. Its gotta be irritating hearing people putting H where it doesn't belong. |

Our P is F and F is P Por instance, ip I wanna say feter fifer fiked a sfeck op fifcle feffer, I would say feter fifer fiked a sfeck op fifcle feffer. So you see, no big deal. . . eben though it makes por a good lap. |

As a matter of fact, it has something to do with where your from. For Yoruba people, there is no H in their language, hence why some people find the hard to pronounce the 'H' sound or use the H sound wrongly. I used to be a typical example, i was taught the right way whilst working in a primary school as some children used to correct me which was embarrasing. |

Be it Yoruba 'H' factor, Hausa 'F' factor or Igbo 'R' factor, I don't have any problem with it, but I always feel scandalized when I hear it on TV or Radio from News casters. It shouldn't be excused from them. |
