The same way ppl would marvel if a Chinese speaks Yoruba

And chinese would open their mouth if a Black man speaks their language.

Kandiikane, Come here and let me appreciate you.

Also you didnt appreciate me for speaking WOllof, Krio and Mandinka

Stop working yourself up for nothing

I am in awe of her.

She is adorable. just look at her skin. . . so white!

her name is titilayo- so im guessing shes nigerian. the only thing that makes it a big deal to me is if she was born and bred abroad. Unfortunately parents dont feel the need to teach thier children yoruba. . . . . well done titi

The same way Polish are amazed when u speak is the same way anyone would be amazed/impressed that a whitie speaks Yoruba.
Some Naijas would even say we have a complex for learning to speak foreign languages. Wetin person go do.
Re: Titilayo :: The White Girl Tha Speaks Yoruba Fluently by hackney(m): 7:11pm On May 14, 2011
I like it.
it's a commendable feat considering that a lot of nigerians cant speak good english
despite it being our Lingua franca for millions of years.

@tpia no mind them joor, they dont even know theres pleanty of whites speaking yoruba in nigeria. THese people have simply never reached lagos! lol
What was amazing to me is i went clubbin in camden town which is a gothic region in london- and a chick from yorshire was speaking yorba to me!! I was gut ghasted! Lol but its normal now ,plenty of foreighners want to know more abt the african culture, i had a white guy from germany teach me twi. Its pretty disgraceful that we dont embrace our culture whilst foreigners are very proud when they learn it. Come and see oyibos rockin ankara nowadays even im ashamed!

not difficult, cos italy, spanish and portugese are a bit similar so if u speak spanish u can peak up the rest of latinos, and russian and polish are a bit similar too so if u speak russian u can also peak up polish, lithuanian and even ukraine
Re: Titilayo :: The White Girl Tha Speaks Yoruba Fluently by buzugee(m): 7:52pm On May 14, 2011
personally i think the only fascination (thirsty and sex starved ) nigerians have with her is because she is hot. yes she is very pretty. people cant understand why a pretty american will want to learn their language (inferiority complex). now if woman in question is a 500 pound, bald and ugly white american woman, and lets assume she speaks as well as yoruba fluently, igbo and hausa, i can bet you that none of these thirsty people on here will bat an eyelid or even make a comment about her. the fascination is in her beauty not her ability to speak yoruba. grin
Re: Titilayo :: The White Girl Tha Speaks Yoruba Fluently by Meristem: 8:34pm On May 14, 2011
So what's the big deal about an Oyinbo speaking Yoruba? Billions of Yorubas speak and even teach her language ***mscheeew**** next post please!!
Re: Titilayo :: The White Girl Tha Speaks Yoruba Fluently by queensmith: 8:39pm On May 14, 2011

Re: Titilayo :: The White Girl Tha Speaks Yoruba Fluently by Nobody: 8:46pm On May 14, 2011
Nigerians are really stu-pid people and they think disliking anything white means they're not dealing with inferiority complex.

They're never happy with anything, no sense of comending anyone.

75% of the people posting here can hardly speak correct English. They were brought up in a country where one of the official language is English, yet they can't speak it. Even our first lady cant speak English with her Igbotic EngRish.

The girl studied hard, tried hard to learn another language and she succeeded. How easy is it to learn a new language?  Psychologically, at the after the age of 10, it's not so easy to learn a new language.

These same garbage Nigerians would be impressed anytime they meet a Nigerian that can speak French, German, Spanish etc. Why? Because to learn a new language so fluently is not so easy. It takes hard work and determination. It takes months of practice, learning new words, syntax, phonemes, and structuring those words together in a sensible sentence is not easy either. And to make it harder, speaking those words in their correct accent.

Nigerians will continue to deal with inferiority complex. A while ago, Igbos were congratulating themselves because of their ability to speak more than one languages, Hausas fro speaking Yoruba, and Yorubas for speaking Hausa. Now a white woman does the same thing and they're saying "so what"?

So you think congratulating the woman means you're dealing with IC? What about abusing her just because she's white? You guys have your mentality displaced.


Why not speak correct English before bashing another person for learning a language she was not born around? Shameless people.

tis not that straightforward. pride is a wonderful thing. it is good to have and it is bad. in this case it is good. not everyone is comfortable with dishing out complements to descendants of their oppressors. thats pure unadulterated pride cheesy

She's speaking ibadan or Oyo yoruba, right? Didnt watch the video cos the topic has been done to death on other threads. Maybe she should open something in journal section.


Btw, sounds like someone has their eyes on a white guy. Latino, white . Same thing.

We whites rock!

So glad i'm one.
Re: Titilayo :: The White Girl Tha Speaks Yoruba Fluently by tpia5: 9:45pm On May 14, 2011
Also, her fans can open a journal for her in nairaland section, since they seem rather sensitive about feedback.
