I'm so glad i can help!!
I like that one
I'm a white guy but there are so many Yoruba Nigerians that work with me in healthcare so I'm doing what I can to help them feel welcomed on my ward 😊

Peter Onaiyekan 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
🤣😁😁😁🤣
😂😂😂😂
😂
The 7 people that disliked this video. Are just sad 🚮
Haha I lowkey agree!
😂😂 straight trash.
Now I know why this language is so musical. African languages are the juice and honey in Communications, but I resonate with the Yoruba tongue, the source of Afrobeat...that's why the language is so sexy and lyrical.
EfemzyEkun yeahhh
It is because Yoruba is a tonal language

Blessing Kayode I have a question. I have a linguistics project to do and I’m trying to find out why in some cases the pronoun moun is there but in other cases it isn’t like in the case of the sentence Omo Odun Meta Ni Mi. I would really appreciate if you answered me
Can we create a WhatsApp leaning group?
"Immigration's coming". That was so funny.
Honestly, I actually thank you enough. I've been tryna speak in yoruba for years now and within an hour of watching your vids I feel so much more confident in speaking my mother tongue. Looool just let me finish this series. My aunties cannot come and do shakara for me now oo
Hahaha you will soon start showing them
😂😂😂
This helps my granddaughter alot. She loves this channel. Keep making more💕💕

I'm at Oyo, serving my fatherland. This is really helping. Ese pupo. Mo appreciate gan..
Awa jeun lowo!
Ese gan, Blessing! I'm a child of Nigerian immigrants, and for the longest time, while I can understand chunks and pieces of Yoruba from my parents speaking it around the house as I grew up (and lots of Nigerian movies), there's still a lot I don't know, and I don't feel very confident in speaking it. These lessons are helping me more than you know. Much love
I’m so glad!!! You’ll get it!
Omg thanks. I love your Channel. I am half Fon/Ewe (Fon language is like old Yoruba mix with Ewe)... I don't even speak Yoruba. This is very informative,
Thank you!! I'm glad I could help!
We are all sare 😂😂. That got me
You are really trying , is a good move
Still studying it 💪🏾☺️
Thumbs up
God, I love these videos. I get excited trying to say things but the minute the next one comes on with more words, I lose it! Lol. It’s rough, but I am so in love with this guy and I cannot wait to impress him.
it's just practice! the more you go over it, the more you'll learn
Gin Seng me too
Gin Seng how’s learning coming along for you?
Alejandra Gonzalez I’m still at the basics lol. But I am really learning how to cook their dishes ☺️ Are you learning as well?
Gin Seng I’m learning just to learn, it’s a fun language deff still in the basics! Good luck !! ☺️☺️☺️
good job sister . sho da da
I found the perfect lessons for me to learn yoruba! I hope my boyfriend gets pleasantly surprised by this! I can learn this while on quarantine 😁😁😁 Thank you! ❤❤❤
Blessing thank you. You are the answer to my prayers. I'm in Lagos now for two weeks from PH. My plan is to be fluent in Yoruba within 90days. That will be great for my business. I'm happy I stumbled upon your channel. I love you. You are doing great for me already.
Thank you! So glad i could help! I'll keep putting out the videos!!
First of all, thank you so much for these videos, they're a wonderfull introduction for somebody with no knowledge whatsoever of Yoruba. Second, you're very pretty.
I'm so glad the videos are helpful!! Ko tope! And I will definitely try and incorporate some more culture into my videos! Thank you
Wow! #Jessyca, and here I am, super surprised that a non black Brazilian is practicing Yoruba culture? I thought it was only the darker descendants of slaves that found the need to do so.
Hope you find the faith satisfying? I'm really surprised 😮😁🇳🇬
EfemzyEkun it’s not true there are a lot of white people even in the traditional Yoruba spirituality because the divinities is everything they are universal forces !
@@davidthespeedster2225 I'm sorry, I think you didn't understand what I meant. I said that I have not knowledge whatsoever of it.
@@jesstoselli hii
I forgot the word for we but I know moun je is I’m eating 😂🤷🏽♀️
Yep! A Jeun is we are eating!
Immigration's coming 😂😂😂😭☠️
Girl i LOVE your videos. I am Yoruba and have been trying to learn to speak it for the longest. You have definitely helped, thank you!
So glad i could help!
You’re bursting my head . I’m so grateful I found you ❤️ . Could you do like “ if you want to hail someone “ the kind of words to hail a big brother or sister. Let them know you regard them highly you know **winks . And yh like a friend or someone that you want them to feel comfortable with you , so they think of you as a native you know .. sho get

Looool omo Yoruba mo likè videos dada
Haha Ese Gan, mo dupe lowo yin
2019 baby 💕 you’ve helped me tho
I'm glad!!
Thank you so much for these videos
Very engaging Yoruba teacher. Thank you for preserving the language.
One note, please use apostrophe ( ' ) when you write a word that is a contraction so that people don't confuse it with another word. Yoruba is a tonal language, so the way you pronounce or write a word can change it's meaning.
Wan fe lo = they want to go
Wan felo = they searched for him
Correct English contraction: isn't = is not
Correct Yoruba contraction: s'oun lo = se oun lo = are you going?
Incorrect Yoruba contraction: akin to mean "awa o kiin" = we do not
When written as akin, this sounds like another word or name, Akin. Adding apostrophe ( ' ) to show missing letters would make it clear for reading.
Yoruba uses contractions a lot. A word could be pronounced like another word but the two are not to be written the same way. They only sound alike because one was pronounced in a shortened way. A word can also look like another word if it is not written correctly. This can make it confusing when reading in Yoruba.
This is why it is also important to use Yoruba intonation marks on words. It is easier to read and understand Yoruba when it is written correctly.
*Sorry for the long comment and missing Yoruba alphabet marks. 😉
Do you also teach the language? Well the written?
I have no connection to the language whatsoever but I enjoy learning it, maybe someday I will meet a random person here in Germany that speaks yoruba😂
Omg my mom said I have to do it
You are very beautiful if I ever meet you we must marry
When you are sa ere! I just love this mix.
The awser for we are eating -awa jean
Hi Diamante, please what yoruba dialect are you speaking? Is it the Lagos dialect?

Hey Blessing, how do you say "to do"? I know you said doing is se, but is that the same for "to do"?
It depends what you mean. What sentence do you have in mind?
Awa Jeun 😊

How do we know which S is pronounced shii, and sha and sa.. Moun sa re why is it not pronounced moun sha re?
There will usually be a dot on the bottom of the s pronounced sh.
If there is no dot, then the S is pronounced si
