I Like This Girl Very Much, But My English Is Not Good. Can I Use Pidgin? by benny44: 10:53pm On Feb 03, 2009
There is this girl that lives in my area. I like her very much. She is very, very pretty most of all she have a very good manners. The problem is that she can speak very good english, and my english is not very good. I have talk with her (by accident) and it was a real problem becos her english is somehow complicated and i have to pause and arrange my own before i talk and so the conversation is not flowing.
I have strong feeling that she like me too, and is waiting for me to approach. Can i use pidgin?? Or will it be bad?
Help, becos i need to make move, and i need to make move NOOOOOOOOOOOOW undecided

If you really like her that much, you better let her know from the start. If she still likes you despite the fact that you don't speak English properly, then she is for keeps wink

Take your time, no need to rush your speech. . . This isn't a race. As long as you are well mannered and a gentleman all around i.e no alrightsir behavior, I doubt she'll mind that you aren't fluent.

Its perfectly okay to use simple sentences.
The best way to improve grammar? read a lot of books. Its simple and it works. Broaden your horizon.

Poster, ur written English here I rate 73/100, however most peeps know how to write bt dnt know how to speak. Have u ever flow in pidgin with her before? If so, read her actions, if she''s ok with it, you can be spitting it often but not all the time, cos I think ur problem is that, u cant flow all along with pure English so u gota mix it with Pidgin, I hope that helps!!

What manliness?
You call that lil marbles even a magnifying glass cannot find a privates?

When they said Yoruba men are the most endowed in naija, it's obvious they missed evaluating you and ur male family members.

Are you kidding me? Abeg jo. It is okay to encourage somebody, but we all know that tabon tabon is a no no with so many of us. And abeg how many educated well mannered (middle to upper class) women will give someone who is speaking pidgin English a second glance? It will take a lot for me not to feel "insulted" (interprete loosely) if some guy (well mannered or not) walked up and started yarning "Abeg fine girl, na wetin be ya name? I like you no be small" or something similar. There is a time and a place for Pidgin English and "toasting" someone is not that right time (not unless that is the only medium that person understands). Rather than that resort to your native language (or not) undecided.

@ Sisi. . . You don change again? Or the almighty powers don come again?
