Why Are Yoruba Youth Doing This? by ItuExchange(m): 1:19am On Jul 24, 2016
It's a pity that many Yoruba people are now suffering from deep ignorance, especially the youth. I’m pissed off to see those half-educated people writing these:

Hardeyourlah instead of Adeola

Yeeancah instead of Yinka

Hardewhaley instead of Adewale

Harboseydey instead of Abosede, etc, etc.

Those shallow-sensed and thoughtless souls think they’re doing something trending on Facebook, Instagram, etc. How many Ibo people, Western people, Hausas, will distort the real spellings of their dignified names, only because they want to “belong” to “modern” and “trendy” crazes? And they gain nothing from this gross stupidity. It’s really a sorry case.

No White man will ever write Henry as Enri or Angela as Anjela; only because they want to look acceptable to other language speakers. It’s a pity when a Yoruba youth writes Elese like Eleche.

No Ibo man will ever write Chukwudi like Sukudi or Ogechukwu like Ogesuku.

Why are Yorubas not thinking? The Spanish, Germans, Chinese, etc. cherish their languages; but our own things have no value to us.

The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will not be the official language of the European Union rather than german, which was the other possibility.

As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English".

In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter.

There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.

In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible.

Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling.

Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent "e" in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.

By the 4th yer people wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v".

During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou" and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensi bl riten styl.

Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi TU understand ech oza. ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru.

Und efter ze fifz yer, ve vil al be speking german like zey vunted in ze forst plas.

And Congratulations you have learnt german within minutes.

OP, just keep your insults, Biko.
Yes, you need to pass a message across, it's your opinion and you're entitled to one but you need not not misplace your manners while you are at it.

When I wanted to register on NL, I used my three names and they were all taken. But because I love my name better and wouldn't have any funny nickname, I spelt it the way I did which when pronounced still sounds like my name.


You accuse us of low self esteem even when we choose to have our native names on social media instead of a nickname. Abeg, what does your username say about you?

TBH, I seriously don't see any point trying to justify or explain why peeps choose to spell their names however they deem fit on social media.
It's their FRIGGING NAME, it's not subject to any laws or rules and you can shove your petty opinion right up your butt! undecided

What I rather find hilarious and amazing is that you sit in the comfort of your home or perhaps whatever _shit hole you find yourself and think your opinion matters.
Seriously? grin grin

Of all the problems and issues you might be facing personally, how has the names people choose to be known as on social media contributed to it?
So you think creating this thread makes you educated and enlightened? You are so clueless and you have no idea how ridiculous you sound. grin
