I Encourage My Children To Speak Like I Do - Patrick Obahiagbon by Wobegist: 1:35am On Aug 28, 2017 |
Patrick Obahiagbon in an interview with Punch has said he would love his children to speak like he does, especially his youngest daughter. His words: “I have said it for the umpteenth time that I have never advertently set out to mystify my audience with what you have referred to as esoteric words and I neither studied Latin. The truth is that extensive reading is my hobbyhorse and these words and phrases become part of my vocabulary repertoire to use your words. Of course, I have equally posited elsewhere that the dictionary for me is a vade mecum. It bears reiteration that my family is already used to my idiolect and I am encouraging my kids along that path but of course you know these things cannot be decreed. I have endeavoured to encourage my children to try and cultivate the gift of the gab especially my young daughter who is exuding all the qualities of a scholar in her formative years and my pleasure will be boundless if one of them can be so motivated.” Source: http://www.wobegist.com/2017/08/i-encourage-my-children-to-speak-like-i.html cc; lalasticlala

Encourage them to communicate effectively not ineffectively/speaking in tongues, thank you. |
