I rest my case.

1Sharon:


Lol you don't even the history on how pidgin originated lol.So much dishonesty

Pidgin uniting Nigeria since 1914.

Anywhere pipo dey yarn pidgin like say tomorrow nor dey,tribalism dey gbaga.

1Sharon:


Pidgin ain't a proper language mate

plsssssssssss! just park well! Problem with some of you is u don't know shit! some states in the Niger Delta have almost 10 languages (not dialects) so how do u expect them to understand each other without pigin! If you don't like it hug transformer

Amberon11:
Nope...if you're not that good at it like you said then trust me I can school you at it.

realy.....you piece of shitt wanna be deltan...i see you as an omonigo...an effeminate useless nothing....i need my concentration for something else.....

Okidoki, if you say so.

1Sharon:


My comment went over ur head. I am not talking about the different tribes trying to communicate with each other. I am talking about ppl within the same tribes talking and still preferring to speak pidgin. I see it a lot in ppl from delta.

mimimile93:


if Warri no top this ur list u for serve ban for straight 3months.

I am a mod. U know?


I no from Delta but I be Warri boy.

I rep Ekpan
I rep Jakpa
I rep PTI
I rep Warri South
I rep Uvwie.


Na we get pigin


Areaaaaa!!!!!

This is why your language will be extinct very soon.

Your problem seems to be bigger than the continent of Africa. Who did this to you?

E be like say Pidgin sef hard u, if not U nor go talk wetin U jst yan so,go bck to read wetin I write,I say dem dey struggle to speak pidgin like who mopol stand for their front.
PS, I schooled in ESUTH so

Actually, what you wrote does not make sense. Igbo is the main language, they only speak pidgin English to Abokis and perceived not Igbos.

Pidgin no be my thing, I no like that language wey some of my country people dey speak.

Sinistami:


It's not the only state Portharcourt and Yenagoa also Lagos people who don't speak Yoruba too has that characteristic.

really? Lagos ppl who don't speak Yoruba? U mean lagocians or Lagos indigins?

And did u say bayelsas n port Harcourt? Have u heard them speak at all? Lolz. ....the intonation is all over

Even when ur with ur tribesmen, u still prefer to speak pidgin

1Sharon:
Let me further add and rock the boat even more:

Certain ethnic groups in Nigeria are noticing and worrying that their language is going extinct. Why won't this happen when you shun ur language and favour pidgin English?
You want to laugh at Yorubas but they are having the last laugh. Because at the end of the day their language is intact

That list up there is shameful!

e clear say dem cook crase give u chop.
Oya carry ur two left legs comot here b4 I cut rope follow u

Dem no dey try travel within Nigeria,e just be like Taraba,Benue and Plateau many people dey think say dem be Hausa people,but dem get many tribes and that na why dem sabi Pidgin English!

Before you travel go Canada,USA and UK; first travel round Naija so dat u go know wetin dey sup.

1Sharon:


Gerrout of here. So you think Yorubas don't have different dialects?

Those are not dialects! They are separate languages and regarded as such. They are not mutually intelligible whatsoever.

Never ever compare the Yorùbá situation to the Edo situation. You know nothing.

As my guy talk, go kak for somewhere before dem give u belle online.

I didn't say everybody in Bayelsa though not the rural area just Yenagoa and you know Portharcourt people has the cleanest English Delta also has some intonations they all seem to have that Urhobo accent even if they not from the tribe or speak it. Maybe it's because you're from there and you've been hearing your fellow deltans speak for long so it's sstarting to feel normal. listen when they pronounce Sh and Ch sounds like Chop they pronounce it as Shop. that's Delta accent even Bayelsans too share that Shosh for church accent too. Most Bayelsans in the Southern most places where they speak Izon and Nembe you'd hear them saying SOS for Church. But for New born Yenagoans it's not like that although they sometimes say Jejus for Jesus but it's just a few people the ones that stays near or are Epie Attisa speakers. But really I tell you the Yenagoans who speak pidgin as a first language don't really have tribal intonations like me.

1Sharon:


There are still debates on pidgin being a proper language

Stop to dey misyarn before Okere juju flog you there.

Nigerian Pidgin is regarded by linguists as a variety of West African Pidgin Englishes! Infact, in the Sapele-Warri axis, Pidgin is undergoing creolisation. There are dedicated scholars of Nigerian Pidgin, notable among them is Professor Egbokhare of UI. There are even groups devoted to the documentation and standardisation of the orthography and linguistics of Nigerian Pidgin.

Do you even know there is a dictionary of Nigerian Pidgin?

I bet you don't know there are many books, including literary works, published in Pidgin?

How would you know? You just carry phone dey observe opata like lizard wey neck dey pain. Better go and educate yourself. Keep forming good English with your ignorance.

Lol get the fvck out of here.
Talking in colloquial and slang is not broken English. And 60% of English? Mainly black British say mandem. White ppl talk a bit more formally.

BiafranBushBoy:


False hypothesis

I beg to differ. If you can speak English, you can speak English. It doesn't matter if you speak pidgin frequently or not, except you are struggling with your spoken english already.
It is like saying speaking creole or patua will spoil your English.

Black Americans that murder the English language, is it pidgin that affected them? Once again, I reiterate, if you know how to speak English, you know how to speak English.

erico2k2:

it is well

yoruba is not the original yoruba....if you want to hear original yoruba,you have to go deep into abeokuta.....ijebu stuff....

infact,their are no original yoruba language....even back then yoruba had dialects....

and dont forget too...yoruba language is not only restricted to nigeria....dahomy,togo...ashanti,ghana are the same ethnic group....go to togo today and you will hear people talking a strange dialect of yoruba......

this is una problem....una concentrate too much on maps that whites drew to you...mostly igbos do this mistake....

igbos have no slightest idea that they are related to people from south cameroon....

My friend, Anambra is a pure Igbo speaking a state. Pidgin English is minimal.
Don't understand your rant here.

Nobody is telling you that you should not care about your tribe. w. Wi jus de Yan Yu seh Pidgin na Nigerdelta language of Unity. You cannot take it away from us it's now part of our evolving culture. You love your Yoruba we love our Pidgin even if you say it's bastardized English we still love it just because Its our language. and u say we speak it among people of the same ethnicity too that's just one of the side effect of it. to most of us it's our first language and first language is the language we react with think with so go figure.
