Hello to you all my fellow steemians. lately i have been thinking of how to make steemit more interesting, so i came up with an idea. I was wondering if we can learn each others languages. If not all, at least the basics.
Attached to this post is a video. In the video i interpreted 10 English words in my language which is Yoruba. I am a Nigerian and we speak three major languages which are Yoruba, Hausa, Ibo. I speak Yoruba. It is actually the easiest to learn.
I am not sure if my idea will be a success but i am ready to give it a try no matter what. I also need your participation. To make it more interesting, i have decided to attach a price of 10 steem to it. I will share 10 steem among three steemians that will teach me their language and also learn mine. It will be in form of a contest.
The Video
youtube.com
Watch the video and understand.
What i basically want to achieve is to get closer on steemit. Make it more interesting. I cannot do this alone and your participation will make my idea sensible. All you have to do is to record a video like mine. Repeat what i said in the video and also make it in your language.
| English | Yoruba |
|---|---|
| Go | Lo |
| come | Wa |
| Name | Oruko |
| Money | owo |
| Sit down | Joko |
| Stand up | Dide |
| Man | Okunrin |
| Woman | Obinrin |
| Love | Ife |
| Hate | Ikorira |
Above are the translation in yoruba. I expect you to do the same.

What a fun idea! I do a post on Tuesdays on my blog to teach Spanish, which is the second language I speak. English is my primary. How many languages do you speak? I will check out your video and see if I can get any of your words down! :) #theunmentionables
