tpia, very true. i met a lady both she and her husband are igbo. but they only talk in yoruba. very interesting, when you see them, you'd know that they are igbo but they don't speak in igbo. she say something in igbo to me though. they both have igbo names. she told me they grew up in Lagos. |

*Hauwa*: I guess it depends on different circles. I have some relatives like that too. They either speak English or Yoruba to each other. They only speak their language when discussing with their parents or relatives from home. People just get more comfortable speaking the language they interact with in social settings like school, church, etc, maybe. Then again, different dialects may also be a factor, because some dialects could be |

How about sauron?Sauron grew up in Eritrea. You wonder why his head is too big? |
Re: Igbo/Niger Delta Women, Please Leave Our Yoruba Men Alone by earTHMama: 8:29pm On Feb 09, 2009 |
that's funny. I know quite a few non-Yorubas in lagos and elsewhere who speak fluent Yoruba- some are more comfortable speaking Yoruba than their own languages.If Tiv man is speaking yoruba to you because you are yoruba, it doesn't mean he is not comfortable with his own language because that will be rude since you don't understand his language. Do you speak yoruba to oyibo people when you meet them?. Will the oyibo people claim you are not comfortable speaking yoruba language? |

Lol this is true, almost to the point that even if a person isny Yoruba but once they say I was raised in Lagos, I pretty much EXPECT them to know the language and majority of them do. |

Re: Igbo/Niger Delta Women, Please Leave Our Yoruba Men Alone by earTHMama: 8:35pm On Feb 09, 2009 |
and why shld they leave us alone? Haba dont limit our chances.There should be resource control in man sharing in Nigeria, don't you think so?. Before a Yoruba man will allowed to marry an igbo woman, the woman must be a tax paying resident in yorubaland for a minimum of ten years and have no history of any crime. |

It all depends where you brought up.I have met hausa guys that where born and brought up in owerri that can speak the owerri dialect of igbo more than me an igbo boy that grew up in owerri.One nigerian social critic Safinatu Mohhamed can speak the enugu dialect of igbo more than here native yoruba because she was born and brought up in enugu. |

If you grow up in the streets of Paris, you will start speaking French more than the French people. Your accent may be the only issue . Most igbos i see that speak Yoruba do not need to tell me their name before i realize they are igbos because their accent is different. In America, African American kids know kids that have African parents, not from their names but the faint accent that is embedded in their American accent. As long as you are bilingual, your accent will be unique. Most igbos that grew up in lagos don't speak yoruba but they may understand it but not those that grew up in Abeokuta or Ibadan and the case is the same for yorubas that grew up in Sokoto, they speak hausa more than the hausa. Does that mean they don't like their own language? |

wait is ruby yoruba?Ruby pearl is Ibibio, I think. She is one of those eastside women that are on the prowl for our men. Lucabrasi and Bawomolo are the two most popular target of theirs but we won't let them pluck them away, not for free. |
Re: Igbo/Niger Delta Women, Please Leave Our Yoruba Men Alone by tpia: 9:12pm On Feb 09, 2009 |
earTHMama:' look, what part of my posts dont you understand? Where did I say a non-Yoruba is speaking Yoruba because I'm in the vicinity? I must say very few people understand your thought process because from posts like these, one has to wonder if you're typing while drunk. And why are you getting bent out of shape at the thought of other tribes speaking Yoruba to each other? Like i said, it depends on the circle people grew up in and move with. Geddit? If you know of Yorubas who grew up in Enugu, who also speak fluent Igbo, then simply state the fact that you observed so. End of story. |

**osisi: Says who?? I can woo a woman with ma unadulterated yoruba. My pidgin is flawless. . . . .ask EarTHmama when i was pimping her ass for Onitsha traders. I grew up in Lagos and i passed Yoruba language in flying colours in ma primary school. I read Alawiye. . . .(Ijapa)
U think i am like you? 20 years in Lagos and u cannot speak/understand Yoruba and Pidgin. Swahili speaking woman. |
