Pidgin English Wiki by markesh(m): 3:02pm On Jan 17, 2006 |
As we all know, pidgin is changing from day to day. My idea was to store the pidgin me I grew up with, and try and learn some new ones. So I set up a wiki at http://www.pidgin-english.com, and I've added some of my pidgin together with some examples on how to use it. Abeg, guys should also add some words, as this our language is changing everyday. |

Nice Site. I actually did some search and it was cool. How do I add words? |
Re: Pidgin English Wiki by markesh(m): 3:24pm On Jan 17, 2006 |
Okay, I added an instruction on how to add a new word to the front page. |

Pidgin is a tough one to follow. The use is so diverse in Nigeria. For example: Dey can be used as follows: "Is" or "Are". For example "he dey go school" - he is going to school How you dey? How are you? Him no dey for house. He's not at home. |
