A Little Of My Diabolic Tongue

So here on read.cash, I do see some users publish articles in their native tongue or a language apart from English and I find it fascinating to read as I do copy it and paste it on Google to translate it for me. It looks like magic as a symbol not more than a word can be translated to five words in English Language. I admire it and the practice also, as it is also a way of bringing like tongues and characters together without even knowing each other. As an act of kindness and foster-ity, I also would be writing an article in a native language of mine; not the Yoruba or the Igbo nor the Hausa but Pidgin. I am not fluent in it like the Warri People but I also know a thing or two innit.

As today be naa, no be everybody for here sabi say I be Omo Naija.. naa of recent pple dem jes day saabi am and if to say I don.day yarn for Yoruba since all these days now, dem my Omo Iya Mi's dem go don sabi my green light, beam me say naa our gee be this.

I am laughing so hard right now as I know not all of us would understand what was said above, to an extent even if you copy and paste it on Google , you won't get the meaning at all or get a true meaning of what I said , I would love to translate it back to English for you but I won't . Let go through some common English- Pidgin translations ...

●Gee, How far naa , how ur syd - How are you doing today, my friend ?
● U see free Toto, u day find hair - You are given a Golden opportunity and you are still being picky over it

●Naa ur Papa wahala be that - That is your own cup of tea
●You don shenk me naa - You totally let me down
●Which way naa - What is it you are doing ?
.... Let take that to mention a few

As in English where we have Homophones , In Pidgin Language a word can mean several things and it all depends on the intonation used in pronouncing it .. let take a look at some examples ..
1. Light dey - There is power supply
   Light dey - Is there power supply
   Light dey - There is power supply ( Sarcastically)

2. Ehn ehn - Tell me more
    Ehn ehn - You don't mean it
    Ehn ehn - As I was saying....
    Ehn ehn - You must be kidding me
    Ehn ehn - I am still in disbelief
    Ehn ehn - And so what.... ?
     Ehn ehn - Yes, it is true.

Nigeria is a place of amazing culture and discoveries, you can never get bored there - you just have to choose your location of stay and interact with its Citizens to explore and take you on a whole new treat . To end my sermon today,  I would be saying " I don try for una, make we day see how 2moro go be naa ... make una have a nice time Odaabo " .
