nduchucks: I'm an equal opportunity offender. I'm Igbo and I've vilified Igbos more than any other group here by far as anyone familiar with my posting history knows and many of them always call me "afonjs". So I'm curious to know what is "racist" about anything I've said about the North. Pointing out their shortcomings in education and human capacity development is "racist"? 1 Like |

Obi1kenobi: Why don't you just accept that your generalizations are racist and tribalistic? When you judge an entire race or Northerners, as you called them, that goes well beyond pointing out shortcomings. If you had narrowly defined the group you are referring to, rather than vilifying an entire region, you may have a point. For now, you owe the Northerners who do not fall into your myopic definition, an apology. Be a big man and offer it. It will not hurt you. |

Obi1kenobi:Rubbish. What is "Native" about our language what a stupid thing to say. Why not find out what has happened elsewhere instead of granstanding self indulgently. The entire bible was translated into many Nigerian languages without "adapting" them. What is "adapting"? please stop talking nonsense and educate yourself about what has happened with Welsh ,With Hindi,With Maori with Kiwswahili and so on. On this thread we are referring to the Hausa language which is good and ready to go once a decision is made. |

aribisala0: Said without a shred of self-awareness. Grandstanding without any substance is exactly what you're doing here. You jumped in here deluding yourself you're making some elusive point and misinterpreting simple comments. Let me repeat it again hoping it will percolate through this time: I have zero problems with using our languages for instruction. Zero. None. Nada. Zilch. But until we develop such a curriculum, it's absolutely daft to be spewing some warped Afrocentrist, delusional, bullshiiit rationalizations in defence of those who cannot properly and articulately communicate in our official language of learning, English. And no, neither Hausa nor any of the other Nigerian languages are not "ready to go". Nevermind advanced University work, if I asked the average Hausa, Igbo or Yoruba man on the street to define Newton's first law of motion (SS1 work) which they know in English, the majority will be stuttering incoherent crap. There will have to be wide consultations and conferences by linguists to standardize the lexicon and basically bring the languages up to date with what is expected in a formal learning setting. 2 Likes |

Obi1kenobi:In your head you are smart ? If you ask the average Human being on earth in any language about Newton's law of motion they will not know That is not relevant to the point being made Newton, by the way, did not write in his native English. He wrote mainly in Greek and Latin. His signature work Principia Mathematica was in Latin This and many other facts elude you because you have no clue about what is involved but feel driven to talk when in reality you are vacant and vacuous There is nothing so special about English that our own languages lack. You really are out of your depth here. Breezy brainless bombast is a shabby ersatz for anything of substance. Our languages are more than ready to go. 1 Like |

aribisala0:I was implying the average Nigeria who can express it in English cannot do so in their mother tongue. Because, representing simple SS1 level science concepts like inertia, force, momentum, vectorial representations etc in their mother-tongue would be highly tasking. But nice worthless try at a diversion. A completely irrelevant point to anything I stated. Your train of though is all over the place.
Other than a vastly smaller lexicon which makes the expression of several concepts in a formal learning setting highly tasking. When you spend half your comments insulting my intelligence, all you do is expose your intellectual insecurities. Such a phony bum and charlatan. 1 Like |

Obi1kenobi: Everything you are saying is just verbigeration. If you want to say something say it don't "imply" it. You failed woefully to communicate anything of moment coherently. You cannot even use the English language properly and are clueless about prosody. The issue here is not complex or complicated at all.We are good and ready to start educating our children in their own language. Those who slavishly,like you insist that there will never be a good time are mistaken. Your understanding of English is average,if that.Your laboured overcompensation is truly amusing. "phony bum" . Please keep it real and natural. |

aribisala0: More projections of your worthless intellectual esteem. The bolded is the funniest projection of all. Anyone reading both our comments can see who the "overcompensating" cretin is, trotting out inapt, gratuitous verbiage about "verbigeration" and "prosody" and constantly insulting and belittling the other's intelligence. As I said, a totally phony charlatan.
Are you being deliberately obtuse as a provocation or are you actually this witless? When did I ever utter anything like the nonsensical twaddle you just claimed above? |
Re: Teacher From Sokoto State And His English On Facebook (Photos) by aribisala0(m): 8:20pm On Nov 18, 2017 |
Obi1kenobi:Our language is good enough for use in educating our children. I would expect YOU to celebrate such a development since your English is weak.... It is "emboldened" ,by the way, not "bolded" that is a solecism one that a native speaker of English at junior secondary level won't make.It goes to make the case for education in our own language |
Re: Teacher From Sokoto State And His English On Facebook (Photos) by Obi1kenobi(m): 8:36pm On Nov 18, 2017 |
aribisala0: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/bold On the contrary, Mr Charlatan, the word "bolded" is perfectly acceptable in urban English usage as a verb in a world of "Face-Timed" or "Whatsapped". English being the wonderfully dynamic language it is, it's very easy to verb a noun in regular colloquial speech. Do some research next time before embarrassing yourself trying to be a smart-arse. |
Re: Teacher From Sokoto State And His English On Facebook (Photos) by aribisala0(m): 8:39pm On Nov 18, 2017 |
Obi1kenobi:So it is Whatsapp Engliish? I see Bold is a noun in your sentence? "verb a noun" how does one do that as in "Idioted" OK But Yoruba and Hausa are not wonderfully dynamic? |

hidhrhis:That is your opinion. Anyhow even if it were true maybe it indicates that they are those who reject cultural enslavement the most Why is being the best in English a good thing if not for colo mentality? Which European nation is the best for speaking Hausa and writing it down |

hidhrhis:Hausa is also an official language in Nigeria.The fact that you are ignorant of this changes nothing. Nigeria has 4 official languages named in the constitution There is alot on this subject that you still have to learn from within and outside Nigeria,contemporary and historical, A lot...... |
