SEC - S10W2 | My Languages
.
Language is something that is very diverse, many countries have their own language and even some countries have hundreds of languages, for example just in Nigeria, there are over 500 spoken languages with various ascents and moving from one State to another feels like being in a different country altogether, but there is one language that united everyone here, English or pigdin.
Here I'll tell you about the languages that Identifies me by answering the questions below:
I speak Nigeria's official language very well; English.
I speak the Nigerian pidgin or broken English (A simplified form of english spoken in the country)
I speak Igbo very fluntly, one of the ethnic languages in the coutry.
I speak little Spanish, the second most spoken language, mostly by the south americans.
I can talk little of some other languages spoken in nigeria, but I can't say I speak them haha.
My native language: Igbo language. (Because I'm from the east Nigeria, from the Igbo tribe).
I'll take this little time to introduce you to some basic greetings in my native language:
Greeting | English translation |
---|---|
Ututu oma | Good morning |
Dalu | Goodbye, weldone ,keep it up |
Nnoo | Hello |
Kedu | How are you |
Imeela | Thank you |
Kachifo | Good night |
Ndo | Sorry |
Umu nnem ndi steemit, nnoonu o | Hello my steemian brothers(or sisters) |
So these are just some of the greetings in case you come to east Nigeria one day and you want to greet someone to reach his heart. I'll leave a little video here for you to see how they are pronounced.
The language I'm studying. Spanish: Yes I'm very passionate about learning this new language so I've been using different methods to learn it.
- Method 1: My Duolingo App
I have downloaded a very nice app that has helped me to progress very quickly. Duolingo is a very powerful language learning app, by its interactive and game-like features its very easy to grab things in the new language. With Duolingo I realize that learning a language is fun, though it's not easy. I can practice and unlock new lessons and fun stories
During the course of the lessons I learn many new words and how to pronounce them. Sometimes I fail but I take corrections next time.
- Method 2: My Google translate app
Yes with this translator I can find out the meaning of some new words in Spanish. Its very exciting to get these meanings and add it to my pack of knowledge of this new language. And the good thing is that I can also translate it offline
- Method 3: YouTube videos
I have also made good use of youtube video programs and they have been really helpful to me. I must say it has helped me a lot to know how to pronounce words, join a few phrases and more.
- Method 4: My Spanish learning progress program on steemit.
Yes this is another effective method I'm using to understand spanish very well and how to pronounce it. I recently introduced a series where I share my progress in the spanish world and so far it's going well.
There I always put videos of the things I've been able to memorize and that way I don't forget them easily.
So far I have posted only three parts and below is the link to it:
So what do you think? Are these methods effective for me.
I have learnt many phrases in the new language. And i can say I know how to read a few passages in Spanish.
Well let me show you a sample below in this video:
For now I do not wish to learn any other new language apart from mastering the Spanish, and I hope that very soon I can achieve that. 💪💪. Spanish is a great language and I want to think of it as easy to learn even though I know it can be a challenge to master it.
The most difficult part of learning Spanish for me has been knowing where to place the ascents. The raised Í or other letters and more.
It is also almost discouraging to know that one word can mean different things or different things can mean one word.
I think this also applies to other languages that one is learning.
The importance of learning a new language is never overemphasized. Everyone knows its important.
Is it greater job opportunity?
Is it better means of communication?
Is it making friends easily?
Is it showing more hospitality and reaching the hearts?
Learning a new language has got everything covered!
The Topic of learning a new language excited much because I admire everyone who has the courage to learn it, its not easy to do it.
I invite the following:

Es muy bueno que hables más de 4 idiomas, además de otras lenguas nativas, esto es una muestra de que eres una mujer sumamente decidía y con una visión de futuro muy amplia. Puesto que el saber más de dos idiomas te abre mucho las puertas para optar por mejoras laborales.
I believe it does! Thank you for your nice words ❤️
Thank you for participating your studies on language diversity! It's fascinating how languages can vary so extensively from one region to another, and Nigeria is a high illustration of verbal uproariousness with its multitudinous spoken languages. With over 500 languages, each with its own unique characteristics and accentuations, it must be an inconceivable experience to navigate through the country and encounter similar verbal diversity.
Hello thank you. Yes we have a lot of language here, but the language diversity is quite fun!
Oh! Wow! Te escribiré en español, porque me he quedado impresionada con tu pronunciación y fluidez, es muy buena, te felicito! Sé que el español puede ser difícil, pero tu has logrado un gran avance, espero que sigas progresando mucho 🤗🌺
Gracias amiga, i'm happy for the progress I make everyday, I hope one day we can have a video call where we will speak Spanish together haha. Thank you for your nice words! ❤️
Wow , am not surprised because I know how brilliant you can be on a very good day and they say practice makes perfect, am not surprise, keep it up on your quest to learning Spanish, the skies will be your starting point

Hola amiga
Wow inscribe ver como puedes aprender el español y que lo pronuncies tan bien, incluso hasta nosotros mismos a veces nos equivocamos.
Si, realmente el español es complicado aprenderlo porque las palabras pueden significar muchas cosas, espero que sigas en tu aprendizaje y no te detengas.
Saludos y suerte amiga!
Knowing that you appreciate me motivates me to continue, so I will.

ESTOY MUY ORGULLOSA DE TI ❤️
😍😍😍 you know I love it when you say you're proud of me ❤️. Thank you so much for your beautiful words for me.
Greetings my beautiful!
Es muy cierto lo que acota sobre el español, de que una misma palabra puede significar varias cosas, pero para quien se encuentra aprendiéndolo debe tratar de ver cuál es el significado más común, con cuál acepción la utilizan con frecuencia los hablantes nativos. Así ya tiene una referencia sobre cuál es el significado que más se usa y es el que debe aprender en un primer momento. Después puede ir investigando otras cosas. Éxitos, amiga...
Thank you for that suggestion, its what I needed to know, and now I'm going to apply it so as not to complicate my learning.
Thank you for your good wishes for me. Greetings!
