Re: Can Somebody Please Teach Me Pidgin? by DisGuy: 2:37am On May 20, 2007

walahi.walai = hausa for e.g
Re: Can Somebody Please Teach Me Pidgin? by ghettochyk(f): 2:37am On May 20, 2007
i'm sure his percentages are wrong. it's definitely not 40% Naija languages in there. it's more like 30%. the other roles Naija languages play is SYNTAX, not actual words. but for actual words, it'd say about 30%. but you know language, especially creoles and pidgins evolve very fast. wink
Re: Can Somebody Please Teach Me Pidgin? by AmerOmoge(f): 2:43am On May 20, 2007
it does evolve quickly, but i guess if you have a basic understanding then you can follow, regardless to how much evolution thats taken place.

whats up, how are you etc?
