This thread is meant for those who are seriously interested in learning the Nigerian pidgin. Feel free to ask for the translation of specific words, phrases, sentence etc N/B: the pidgin is complex and is usually flavoured with local dialect, slangs and infusions of some of the major Nigerian languages. Special mention to Texanomaly Oya let's go there!!! |
