What I Learned From the Language Challenge
The Language Challenge was so much fun! If you haven’t seen the entries, or don’t know what I’m talking about, I advise you check it out ASAP!
Here’s what I learned from Sugabelly’s Language Challenge:
- Yorubas are killing it in the language department!!
- Igbos need to start teaching their children the language ASAP or it’s going to disappear eventually (the chances of Yoruba disappearing are practically zero)
- Hausas are often just as fluent as Yorubas but don’t engage enough online
- Other Nigerian ethnicities need spaces where they can speak their languages more often
Do you agree?
I think it’s time for another edition of Sugabelly’s Language Challenge.
I agree with the first statement. Yoruba’s are doing very well in the language department. Most of the ibos i know speak their dialect as well too. Igbo language cannot disappear though. Have you seen 90% of Nigerian home videos lol. My point exactly.
I wonder y Hausas don’t engage online tho.
Oh please have another Language challenge!! I just found your blog, so please pardon my many posts 🙂
Haha!! I noticed your flood of comments. It’s okay. I’m going to announce another Langugage Challenge soon.
