      Hi there, many thanks to you as well for reaching out. I truly feel humbled that my work is having a positive impact on you. I'll continue to do the best I can to create these learning resouces.
      I'd highly appreciate if you would participate in my online survey goo.gl/forms/rE2ZL7quzlhSPX092 . It's simply a set of multiple choice questions that will take you maximum 10 minutes to fill out. I'm conducting the survey as part of a study about why my viewers and subscribers are interested in learning Edo language.

      A tandem partner woupd be great for you. Do your parents speak Edo. Perhaps, you can ask them to only communicate with you in Edo for a set period of time. That will you'll be gaining a lot of input which would ultimately make it easier for you to reproduce it (i.e. speak it). I hope this helps.

    • @edolanguageinstitute
      @edolanguageinstitute  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@nigerianfilms As someone's first name, it would be "Uyiosasẹre". However when you break it down in a sentence, it would be "Uyi ọgh' Osa ọre ọ sẹre / Uyi ọgh' Osa ọr' ọ sẹre/ Uyiosa ọr' sẹre". As you can see, there are 3 possible ways to make the statement as a full sentence. The last option is what you'd most likely hear an Ẹdo native speaker say. Simply because the language usually allows the contraction/omission of syllables without the statement losing its meaning. Please also note that "sẹre" is the past tense of "sẹ" (to be greater/more than). Just as "bọre" is the past tense of "bọ" (to build).

      Oh, I'm happy to know that kids get to learn about Benin Kingdom over there. I'm assuming this is part of a history class? Oh and is this a public or private school? Sorry for all these questions. I live and schooled in Germany. We rarely never learned anything empowering about Africa in school. My luck was that i already knew much about Africa given that I was born in Nigeria and spent my early years there. Plus we had lots of relevant literature about Africa at home.

    I think this good. I can see it is very challenging giving this lecture. I think you are doing your best. The issue with benin language is because we are a lot driven by success first hoping everything else comes second. I have a challenging issue because I spent time in France and now in UKI. So my kids are trap in between owing to like you know being link to France. They just asking now and then how can they learn. I just cannot speak it alone to them. It so hard and confusing. I stumbled into your video and I am subscribing. I am glad you look comely, but they still felt maybe I can do myself better as they think you still have an accent(international) accent.

    Great video..question, how would someone greet their parents anytime of the day?

    • @edolanguageinstitute
      @edolanguageinstitute  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      We usually don't just great eachother for no reason. It always depends whether you are coming home (or somewhere else) to meet them or if they are the ones coming to meet you. So, Obowa, Obokhian. Or whatever time of the day it is. There is always a reason and context for greetings in Edo. And ofcourse, you can never say "koyo" in the sense of "hello" to your parents. You may only use koyo with your parents as an expression of empathy/sympathy e.g. if they've hurt themselves or if they are doing a hard task in your presence.

      @Blessing Itua: No, Esan is an Edoid Language. I wouldn't say it's an Edo dialect though but both languages are very similar grammatically. The biggest difference lies in their phonology (i.e. sounds) and pitches on vowels (i.e. high, middle or low). I'd recommend the website learn esan dot com (you'd have to write it as a link).
