8. Two heads This is a double edged Nigerian term typically laced with heavy sarcasm, it could be used to mean superior (like the example below) or stupid (like the example above). Example: “Jolade that came first, does she have two heads?” https://zikoko.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/dot-and-bette-690x381.jpg |

7. Chanced When someone takes your spot or cuts in front of you. Example: “See as you just chanced everybody, we that we are on the line do we have two heads?” https://zikoko.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/0db3940c5fb928b3c2bf2c607f43afb6_720-1.jpg |

6. From where to where? This is Nigerian for ‘How?’ used when the word isn’t suitable enough to convey the contempt and/or sarcasm in your voice. Example: “I think I saw Ada with a Prada bag” “That one? From where to where?” https://zikoko.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/01d579390671254f1c61e872f3fcdb7b_720.jpg |

5. See finish This is Nigerian for ‘familiarity breeds contempt.’ Usually used when a Nigerian gets disrespected by someone they consider to be beneath them. Example: “Did you hear how Amaka spoke to me? I don’t blame her, na see finish cause am.” https://zikoko.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/6cd17830f8d1faed6912c8c753bcef5c_720-580x580.jpg |

4. Good for you This is Nigerian for ‘I told you so.’ Not to be confused with the ‘Good for you’ that typically means congratulations. Example: “Didn’t I tell you not to date Yoruba men, you’re now here crying stupid tears. Well, it’s good for you.” https://zikoko.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/6bbd09a54289592ec7740525cf898e26_720.jpg |

3. Are you okay? Do not confuse this with the ‘Are you okay?’ that typically shows concern. They are basically asking you why you are so stupid. Example: “You borrowed my shirt and put it up on Instagram, are you okay?” https://zikoko.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/5fe0d728985b06a42792bf044402ed48_7201.jpg 1 Like |

2. They said The thing is no one really knows who ‘They’ is, but it is the go-to pronoun for the Nigerian who doesn’t see the need to be specific. Example: “They said you just finally got engaged, thank God, we were getting worried.” https://zikoko.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/they-said.jpg 1 Like |

Nigerians are undeniably special, and one of my favorite things about being one, is that innate way with words we all seem to have. Everything we say almost always seems to be laced with sarcasm and casual wit. Sometimes it’s not even intentional. So, here is a list of a couple of my favorite ‘Nigerianisms’: THE PHRASES [size=13pt]1. My Friend[/size] Usually used when a Nigerian is at their least friendly, either to caution or lure you into a stern warning. Example: “Daddy, could I please get some money?” “After that result you brought home? My friend, will you get out of here.” https://zikoko.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/IMG_20150512_191831.jpg 1 Like |

Brother don't clone shiit. It's disturbing to see how difficult it's becoming for people to simply do the right things without second thoughts. You broke a law in the first place, and apparently you're not remorseful enough to admit you did, by making it right by them. Now you want to break a second....Tell me how you're different from Saraki?? 14 Likes 1 Share |
