Hullo,

I am Yoruba and I love the igbo language and culture. I'd like to learn the language. I don't know how feasible it is but impossible is nothing. If you're a fluent speaker and a proficient teacher, this thread is for you. If you wanna learn like me, come in, there's enough room.

Thank you.

I think this thread will help you. I learnt alot from it.

1) In Onitsha Igbo, Igiligi is dew, as in the light mist rain that falls in the evening. Igiligi ogu...the dews/side effects of war/fight maybe?? It many mean something else in another Igbo dialect.

2) Ntu malu onye army...the nail that punctured an army person....used to refer to a small person or thing capable of doing big things. A similar title to this effect in Igboland would be, ntu magbulu enyi (enyi means elephant). I hope you get the gist.
