Hello Elle. How is it going? You are doing great!!! Diego speaking here. How was your setup for this video? What camera are you using? Kudos for the good work with your podcats!

Self-Taught Polyglot is here! Keep it up!

Haitian creole is awesome i do a lesson chak jou...l'union fait la force 🇯🇲🇭🇹👊🏿

Great work! You’re such a great speaker and I love how you care about these languages. ❤️

I'm glad to see/hear a Nigerian language that's neither the Igbo, Yoruba or Hausa language.

Amazing and inspirational story. You are very resilient and I'm proud you proved the negative people in your life wrong. I'm also soussi amazigh. Akim i 'awen arbi. T herrsht bzeff.

Thanks Elle. Sorry for being out of touch. I dropped off of Instagram. Glad to see you are keeping up the good work. John

Also we have many similarities with Arabic! And I would say the most difficult about our language is that we have cases! Like slavic!

Soc Valencia i aquesta xica no mes diu tonteries es increible que diga coses com aquesta en primer lloc el Valencia esta protegit per llei es llengua con status de co- oficialitat en la regio te el seu canal de T.V i radio regional pagat pel gobern regional i se ensenya obligatoriament a les escoles en la regio ; parlar Valencia es normal i apenes ocurrixen coses negatives es increible les tonteries i exageracions que se escolten deu meu😂

I loved listening to this and loved how you shared your life experience. Most people cannot even speak shona even if they have stayed in Zim for 6 years. Proud of you girl! And U are so right , you can only be good in your language if you have other people around you speaking the same language. I laughed when she said the cows are not in your apartment haha

A very interesting discussion.

I had such a great experience speaking with you. Thank you for this experience.

Wow your esteemed guest was speaking from an outsider's perspective. If I was to debunk her talking points I would spend the rest of the day doing so but I'm glad you asked great questions only that the answers where not authentic at all. It's like they came from someone who only spent a few months in Zim. I'm sorry sister I'm not coming for you but you really misrepresented but it's quite an interesting podcast after all has been said and done

Prof., thank you for enlightening us! We need an elaborate online forum to perpetuate Ga-ah Kejom. If not, I'm afraid our language would disappear. I find it hard getting the kids to speak the language at home. Since they're mostly online, this could be a great forum for them to learn the language on their own. Just for my general knowledge; is there a physical boundary between the two Kejoms. Is there "R" in Ga-ah kejom? Fufu (kebain in Ga-ah Kejom) is a more consistent cornflour porridge and Njama njama is a garden huckleberry variety that is harvested before it flowers. Achu is colocacia paste and the yellow soup is kind of limestone, juice from boiled meat or fish, and palm oil mixed together.

Croatian/Serbian/Bosnian/Montenegrin have 7 cases. Russian has 6 cases.

This is a wonderful insight of BABANKI which alot of even the BABANKI (kedjom) people are unaware of . Thank you Prof.

Great Prof. Just learnt a lot about Babanki. That was so clear and resourceful. We need to recognize the importance of our own languages.

Thank you

Thank you so much Pro Pius. You make us proud to be Babanki. More power to your elbows. More fuel to your lamp. Stay blessed.

Congratulations Doctor May the sky be your limit I have learnt something I never knew about

Dear Dr. Pius Akumbu, Congratulations on your outstanding conversation in Episode 150 of the Speaking Tongues Podcast! Your clear and insightful explanations were enlightening. We're thrilled with your ability to bring complex topics to light and hope you continue this remarkable work for future generations. Thank you for your invaluable contributions.

Thank you Prof. Akumbu. Very educative and I appreciate the Bilingual aspect precisely the French initiation aspects particularly when we drift out of the English speaking zone. Thank you for your works in Kejom language and culture.

Thank you Prof. You are awesome. I have learned alot

Quite educative Prof. That is Ga'a kejom for real. Elle is learning alot so do I

This is awesome. I speak Babanki and as an indegene of that village, I just had a series of lessons succinctly articulated in a single podcast. This is so timely because this language is an endangered Bantu language that needs revitalization. Kudos to Prof Akumbu for taking this uphill task. Where are my Kedjom brothers and sisters and all users of this language. Let's put all hands on deck and disseminate this phenomenal propelling agenda. NTSENTE....DIH..... KEDIOH Kezong ah Lemme 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Wonderful interview ❤️ Proud of you Itto!!

I am proud of you Garita. Keep going lady.🎉

I am proud of you Garita. Keep going lady.🎉

Awesome!

This is so true years ago I talked to a girl for a while from Charleston, South Carolina. I thought she was from Jamaica.

You know, when I lived in Astoria I remember saying I should check out Titan but never got around to it. Thanks for letting me experience snacks through your tastebuds 😊

Try the Michel Thomas french course, it's dope !

@peternotsowhite

This was an amazing discussion with you Elle! It's an honor to have been a guest on your podcast, keep up the amazing work❤

Two of my favorite content creators have finally come together for a profoundly insightful and vitally important conversation! <3

Aiyana is such an inspiration.

I think that one is one of my favorite episodes.

There is a similar expression in Turkish: Ne dersem yalan olur. Whatever I would say would be a lie

It was such an interesting, informative, fun and lovely conversation to listen to. I laughed or smiled at some points. :) It was a great opportunity to get to know Colombian culture and different Spanish versions across Colombia. It was also really interesting to listen to her experience on growing up bilingual and growing up in different places. I really enjoyed it a lot! Thanks, both of you!

cool

What a powerful conversation. You’re such a good host Elle ❤️. Thanks so much for having me on for this discussion 😊

The sentence structure is similar/ same to the bantu structure. For example in Shona Zita (name) rangu(mine) ndi(is) Indira or Swahili Jina(name) langu(my) ni (is)

came here from Israel's channel, thanks for having him on & asking fantastic questions, and thanks Israel for representing Cantonese and supporting minoritized languages! 好支持你哋，加油啊！

Fascinating!
