And if a Briton leaving his country is "Brexit", then if a Nigerian is leaving what is it called

I've always been trying to see how I can make those involve with languages to improve our languages.

Yoruba for example needs much improvement. I am a Yoruba guy and I tried to interpret physics terminologies to some of my students who couldn't comprehend the big grammars and scientific jargons.

Let's improve our own languages. Just like Holy Bible. Translate major subjects in schools to our language. Let's teach these courses in our language and see how much students will understand and invent.

China, India, Koreans all uses their local language to teach and as official. Yet most, especially India and China can speak very good English.

Have you ever see somebody making jest of you for speaking wrong Yoruba or your own language? Yet we do everyday.

God bless us.

I love this part....
 Beer o’clock, n.: an appropriate time of day for starting to drink beer 

And "bruh" and "awesome sauce" too.

The new word is bants/bantz not banter!
