Imagine if snakes could use phones, and they had their own website called SnakeLand, and on the website's front-page, you'll be seeing topics like "See the human killed by a SnakeLander"

d first day I ate it I actually didn't know it was a snake,a frnd to my dad just called me to his apartment(I was a lil younger den) and told me to taste dis fish he just bought before I knew I was taking d second bite oooo...lo and behold d man ask sey wetin I dey eat I sey na fish naa but he said it is a snake a python dats ow I started eating snake bro..just try it u ll love it

That man no try for your life.

1, he lied to you that it was fish and made you taste it. Because be knew if he had told you it was snake, you wouldnt wanna taste it.

What if you were allergic to eating snake then?

Now see the consequence after several years, you still dey chop am.

Except you've forgotten how we communicate and express ourselves in English here in Nigeria. I guess she was trying to make us understand the continous tense backed up by a past participle tense in her wifey duties. She's a good wife material (naija expression) even with all the bulky and bulging bank balance... I doff my hat for her. Wish I could have a wife like her. "He that findeth a virtuous wife findeth a good thing and the Lord crowneth her and her husband with overpouring blissful blessings" #MyQuote... lol

lol. I understand.

Nice quote.
I do hope you find yourself a better wife.

You better thank God say u still see Antena, Aunty rose own na fufu dey inside so I con dey wonder say se she go chop am ni

lmaooooo! Abeg no allow me laugh commot tears for eyes jare.

She later chop am?

So any guy that sits with a lady is on a date with her? Haba.

Let's think na. From a different perspective, who knows, maybe that's a guy who needs financial assistance from his society, but rather he's being mocked by the same society.

Lots of people are suffering in this world, some people wear worse than that. That youve got life all rosy, doesnt mean your neighbour next door has got same rosy life.

Nice one

Chaiii. Op you try, but your introduction in the video was long. I'll suggest next time, you go straight to the point.

whenever an UNTIL is in a sentence...have patience...its not done yet

"Until 6 years ago" What are you saying please?

wadetaw202:
And neither does oxymoron knowledge matters except in the school of language....all that matters anywhere is understanding and not lexical construction.

Noted Sir/Ma!

hifaif1:
Actually, the examples you gave are paradoxes. Oxymorons that actually point out paradoxes are called literary oxymorons. Oxymorons generally involve the use of two contrasting words side by side.

Alright. Thank You!

legendprac:
Be correcting English while she's making money

Must everything be about money? What's wrong with people?

Chaaiiiii.

All na for publicity

gafoo4u:
It may be "wash" in ur own dictionary but the correct word is "washing" since she was talking about past action in a continuous tense

Bros, he's right with the correction. Just accept it.

"Used to washing" in that context doesnt sound well.

swtdrms:
Not a big deal? u mean as a successful billionaire lady, u will not only respect me as ur husband but u'll also wash my undies and take pride in doing that....Sincerely i doubt it.

Well, your doubts doesn't change reality.

I'll say it again, Not a Big Deal.

wadetaw202:
I Dont think anyone needs knowledge of oxymoron and its lexical application to be the second richest woman in Africa.... Or what do you think

Well, from my school of thought, life isn't all about Riches.

hifaif1:
That is not an oxymoron. When you use two contradictory words side by side, you are applying an oxymoron. For example "the drink has a "bitter sweet" taste. "Bitter Sweet" is an oxymoron.

Her statement is however contradictory as you pointed out!!!

Thanks for explaining. This may not be an Oxymoron like you pointed out. But permit me to say that's not the definition of an Oxymoron.

Oxymoron means "A figure of speech in which apparently contradictory terms appear in conjunction"

They dont necessarily have to be side by side.

Examples: "Live within your income, even if you have to borrow to do so.

"We must believe in free will. We have no choice."

It was supposed to be I used to wash his undies until six years ago that he insisted I should stop

Exactly my point. But we understand her though. Just felt I should point that out.

Job Offer: Will You Teach My Nephew And Knees English Language

Yes. I'll teach your Nephew and Hand.

swtdrms:
Wat ur opinion abt washing her husband undies, that's wat we want to hear.

Wld u do same in same situation?

That's not a big deal.

andyanders:
You are on point.When people lie, they can use any language to buttress their point.

lol. Maybe she's not lying.

lielbree:
So a woman is a great wife because she washes her husband pants?

Lol

And did I say that's the reason she is? There's more to being a great wife.

And the fact that a woman choses not to wash her husband's pants doesnt mean she's not a great wife.

Different strokes.

Eluwilussit:
True talk. The message is super though. A true wife. Beautiful woman. I am sure she's a great mom as well. Wow!

Yea. Exactly. Obviously she'd be.

bigtt76:

Thanks.

Jethrolite:
You understand the message and stop creating unnecessary diversion. All you girls do when you marry a rich man is abdicate all your duties to the house help.

That's the problem with us. When we try to make corrections, they call it diversion. No one is above mistake, but correction should be noted when necessary.

Besides, dont categorize me with the girls you know.
