A long but interesting piece.

"In Mbaise and Mbano areas of Imo State, the same question is asked as: Ehi olengbe ka anyi huru? The greater point is that Mbaise and Mbano stretch is the heartland of the Igbo. The Igbo autography is built around their tongue."

How true is the quoted part?

Also, point of correction @bolded, in my place of isi-ala mbano, it is Eshi olengbe ka anyi hukwara?
We say eshi and not ehi

How do you say the bolded in your place? @Munzy14
Ehi is more like a dialect to the contr5 clan, ngwa people etc.

The correct one I am conversant with is Eshi, being born and brought up in O'town.... My tongue is more of Owerri than contry5.

lol to the bolded... My Personal dialect is like engligbo.. grin


When I was serving at Abia, my Yoruba friends where saying I don't even know how to speak Igbo, saying my igbo was sounding like English.

how are you? In owerri " O lee kpa iri" or " A na lee kpa i na ri"....cheesy

You will now reply " a ri mi mma o"

When I was schooling in Anambra, my friends find my igbo tongue as fun.

But I ended up changing to Anambra tongue. Till today if I Converse with any Anambra person in Igbo, you won't believe I am from IMO.... cheesy

Are you not proud of your dialect?
You might confuse your children in future you know.
For me, it's either Igbo nzube or olu mbam
Why should I speak a different dialect when I can speak mine? Like I'm ashamed of it or something...
Tell me; were or are you ashamed of your dialect ? cheesy

We didn't grow in a setting where the dialect is used in conversation... mom only speaks in contry5 pure tongue.

You can stay with my dad for years, u won't know he is contry5 conc one o....I think that was where we mixed the whole thing growing up.

My village is at border with ikeduru, your place and ehime mbano.

They inter married a lot... it affected the conc mba5 dialect in my side.

Ooni's statement is not conversant with Yoruba's identity, in relationship with other ethnic group. So he is incorrect because he doesn't know much on Yoruba ethnography or what pictographs serves,except based on western world interpretation. Perhaps, he needs accept the reality that yoruba are different and not as hairy as the more hairy Ibos.

Don’t take this personally and don’t take it as an insult but make sure you see a psychiatrist. So that you can get on a good drug regiment to help you. What you are saying makes no sense and looks like writings of someone suffering from bipolar or psychosis. Many people have it and the condition can be managed with medication.
