i'm sure his percentages are wrong. it's definitely not 40% Naija languages in there. it's more like 30%. the other roles Naija languages play is SYNTAX, not actual words. but for actual words, it'D say about 30%. but you know language, especially creoles and pidgins evolve very fast. Wink

it does evolve quickly, but i guess if you have a basic understanding then you can follow, regardless to how much evolution thats taken place.

like how far and how bodi or which levels na, do they all mean about the same thing?

whats up, how are you etc?
