Blue textThis seems funny to me, but I dont know how others will foresee it. U c we are all educated,  some r way up @ our tops. Some r still shining out their flying colours!! which is all Alhamdulillah to me!!!!The funny thing, is the use of english language. I noticed this with the Nigerians... as they are good conversationalist. Am not trying to degrade Nigerianz or misjudge them as I myself turn out 2 b a proud citizen of Nigeria....Nigerian people rather use high extra long words to prove out their intelligence.. fair enough, but why cant we stick to simple language that makes simply meaning? Going on interview, the interviewee will go to major lengths to speak out word that he himself finds it a little bit difficult to pronounce and using it at the wrong time making it difficult for the interviewer to understand, but just to impress the interviewer and show him/her he has good excellent skills in english language. I so much admire how the Nigerainz use words unnecessarily in conversations.... no matter the level of their education. The simple english a person uses.. the more people undestand without them havin some one to whisper out... what does that mean or tilting their eyebrows in suspending what one was talking about. Incase others are about to get me wrong...... hear this "A politician giving out a speech"... "The government will try to reduce Apocalyse that will catasrophically affect the Nigerian Economic situation". A boy praises a gurl after a heating debate.... "he said "gaskiya kina da good mentality!!!!!! Y not say.. gaskiya ur debate was good..simple shikenan!!!! Read Essay writing by young kidz in primary school and see how they are bamboozed with dictionary words which they not now the meaning of. Dictionary words!!!!!!! they r not the english but what we speak of them and understand is the turanci!!!!

;D lol hey, i extra-agree. Cos sometymes u can't even get a hint of wat some1 is chatting about. They use extra-expensive words in lectures like maths where u then have 2 relate it 2 English by checking the dictionary. But it's kool, (dat's if u understand).  ;D

My one & only Adda Ummita... why are you becoming so dominant, trying to dominate kano & saying all that.. a koma asali... quite alright I am half/half ful-fuls but you be fulde but the outsider/original. Fulanis ba dan kara ku akayi ba ma. Most of us do not know how to speak turanci.. look for fulanin karkara.. (come).. they cant say it.. look 4 cikin garin kano, even the illetrates they sabi (come, go, sit ,stand) Da kuke maganan turanci, yaushe kuka ma iya sosai. You left your english transmission back in junior high ;D
