This thread should be awarded thread of the year. This is unarguably the best thread in Nairaland history. Anyone who disagrees should argue with his barber

deomelo:
To all the Yoruba folks engaging these ibo and Igbos to desecrate this thread, you are all enablers and co-conspirators to destroy this thread.


They are obvious bitter because their own thread died already and all they are trying to destroy and kill this thread just like theirs so why allow them to do that.


They'll go away if you ignore them, but they will remain if you keep going back and forth with them so why is it so hard to ignore them?

Do you think they are here to help this thread? No, they want to destroy it because they don't want to accept defeat.


Why is it so hard to ignore them>

I agree with the post above! In addition I'd
like to state these facts below...



If any FAKE Nairaland moniker begins
to derail any thread with ethnic insults
or defamation of character, PLEASE hit
the "Report" button at the bottom of every
"Off-topic" post!


State the reasons for "Reporting" the Internet
Troll, and that will take the "Winds" out of
ANY Troll's sails, instead of responding to
them. I do this a lot on Nairaland instead of
responding to them as it saves time. I've been
using NL since 2005 and I can say this is
one of the best ways to control them
BUT it is not yet absolutely foolproof!


In the alternative, send a mail to the Super Mod
from the bottom of the NL home page to
REPORT specific FAKE NL monikers that
engage in ethnic insults and Internet Trolling!


The use of free throwaway emails such as gmail, hotmail etc, to
register new NL accounts is what has led to
the presence of many Internet trolls on NL and
I think if people are made to register/reregister with
their mobile phones [One new or existing Nairaland account LINKED
to ONLY one mobile phone/SIM] and get an instant registration
code from Nairaland, for FINAL account activation, this would help to
clean up NL of these deeply annoying trolls/FAKE monikers
and help to attract more quality users and advertisers
on NL. @Seun can implement this
in 2018, because it seems to me the Mods
will NOT be able to keep up with monitoring
all the annoying FAKE monikers. There is one
moniker that I saw claiming to be a "female Yoruba Muslim" and posted insults online by derailing threads with hate messages
but moniker user is actually of S/E origin because I saw
the obviously "male" creator of the fake moniker
speaking concentrated Ibo to another troll
in a previous posts/threads this year... and that is how they have
been running rings round Nairaland's
"security architecture."



All the best to those who have contributed
to this thread so far!

Y'all remember the embedded system engineer that created a smart pump device for gas stations? Oluwatobi Oyinlola

He was part of a team of engineers to build a prototype for the next-generation vehicle (Hyperloop) with his Rloop team called rpod – the vehicle was presented in the Hyperloop competition initiated by Elon Musk. His team won “Best Innovation of the year”

Intel also awarded him "Intel Software Innovator" for representing Africa in various innovative competitions.

The company also plans a fertilizer plant and lubricants facility as well as a liquefied petroleum gas plant, Adebutu said.

Well ladies and gentlemen, our poll to find the world’s sexiest language has finally come to a close. So what is the world’s sexiest language? What are the sexiest languages per region? While some of the languages on this list may not surprise you, some of them certainly will. The winners, according to popularity are:


1. French
2. British English
3. English
4. Arabic
5. Spanish
6. Samoan
7. Italian
8. Yoruba
9. Thai
10. Tahitian


However, when we calculated the sexiest language according to region, the list turns into:

• North America: English – Known for being the mutt of all languages, English has developed into a complex and beautiful creation that borrows the precision of German, the intensity of Latin, and the refiner of French.

• South America: Spanish – The language of a never dying love contains the vocabulary and rhythm that can make any person swoon.

• United Kingdom: British English – The accent of sophistication and of incredible depth, the British English contains sounds that can adjust itself into any position.

• Western Europe: French – Usually considered the suave and most cultured of the Romantic languages, French is as soft as silk and feels as warm as a lover’s stroke.

• Western Europe: Italian – Known for its poetic nature, Italian is the language of passion and fun, making this language addictive.

• Africa: Yoruba – With percussive intensity and syllables that sound like everyone is singing, Yoruba massages your ears into ecstasy.

• Pacific Islands: Tahitian - With its warmth and voluptuous sounds, Tahitian is the sound of gold coming to embrace you.

• Asia: Thai – Soft spoken, fun loving, and happy-go-lucky, the rich textures of Thai make this language incredibly seductive.

Thanks to your help, Day Translations has been able to search for the world’s sexiest languages in the world! While some of us are not surprised that French turned out to be the sexiest language of all, one can’t help but wonder: What makes a language sexy? And what is it about French?

According to Dr. Nigel Armstrong, a lecturer in French and sociolinguistics at the University of Leeds, there is nothing in the accent that makes French sexy or unsexy. In fact, the same could be said for any language that is included on our list. No language is inherently sexy, for accents and languages are merely sounds that follow an organizational structure. The reason why we think French or a particular language is sexy is much more interesting.

As Dr. Armstrong states, the sexiness of an accent or a language is due to our social and cultural backgrounds. Several surveys have been conducted on similar linguistic phenomena. People, depending on where they have grown up and with what they have been taught as normal, are prone to holding opinions that their culture holds. For centuries, the French have had the stereotype of being stylistic, cultured, suave, and most of all, sexy. Yet why the French?

Generally, the persons who are the most favorable of the French tend to live in a Western culture. This come as no surprise when you consider the numerous polls that have studied attractiveness and sexiness tend to be taken in either the United Kingdom, or the United States. Seeing how both nations are fairly similar in contrast to say, Canada and Indonesia, the polls tend to have the same responses. It is not terribly surprising that Italian, British English, and French show up in every poll about sexy languages.

What is interesting though, is the fact that our poll happens to include a more varied population. As you can see, Arabic, Samoan, and even Yoruba have made it in to the top ten. Has the West ever considered the sexiness of Tahitian? Have we ever even paid much attention to the Yoruba language? Maybe it’s about time that we start to dig a little deeper into other cultures and learn about what makes them so sexy. Who knows, maybe Thai is truly the sexiest language. We just need to study the culture a little more.

He who hesitates is a fight is sure to lose.

There's no disputing the facts of this thread.

I am in America and I've come to find this out to be very true that Yoruba people are the most industrious, prosperous and most educated African people on Earth.

This is the rise of Nigeria as a great empire state that would benefit all of West Africa and beyond. How could it be a bad thing? Sometimes this silly rivalry is taken way, way, way, too far with Nigerians. Like the other day, Twitter explodes over which women look the best between Igbos and Yorubas? That's silly. They are both Nigerian women and there's very little difference in the bloodlines after all these centuries of mixing. None of you look like East Africans so that makes you look the same in my eyes.

Sango is the greatest Nigerian ever and his legacy a cultural heritage for every Nigerian.
