lol, yeah, it is 'cause different states got different ways of sayin' same stuff, it's confusin' sometimes, that i can't really speak igbo, i combine it with english 'cause most words like objects e.g table, idk how it's said in igbo, even if i knew, it's probably long so my siblings and i speak engli-igbo. lol

Not necessarily. You've gotta be "committed" not "clever" lol, yeah, it is 'cause different states got different ways of sayin' same stuff, it's confusin' sometimes, that i can't really speak igbo, i combine it with english 'cause most words like objects e.g table, idk how it's said in igbo, even if i knew, it's probably long so my siblings and i speak engli-igbo. lol
This is so because Igbo has many dialects (some of which are mutually unintelligible, e.g. I'm from Anambra but I don't understand Abakiliki Igbo from Ebonyi state). That is why Onwu orthography was agreed upon to provide "Igbo Izugbe" (ie. general igbo) so that new comers can find it easier. @Chiogo Improvisation is also allowed so table may be called "tebulu" just as cyberspace can be called "amasaiba". where there is the will, there is the way |

yeah, u're right. i know but ain't it the same thin' "tebulu" with an igbo accent. am from anambra too and most times, i don't understand imo/abia people when they speak.

Well, I'm opportuned that I can always ask my dad or grand parents what the name of some things in Igbo are if I don't know. That's why I'm learning Igbo so that I can be there for my children Our language must not die! Igbo ga-adi! |
