[@lanigee553]

Her pidgin is Papua New Guinean and her English is American. Amazing!

[@restaurasur]

I don't know how the KZbin algorithm had this in my "recommended videos", but now I'm sad. I can't imagine being so far from the comforts of home and wantoks. Thank God I live in North Queensland, Australia - where you meet Pidgin speakers everyday, whether they're from PNG, SI, Vanuatu or the Australian Torres Strait Islands.

[@mykparaka8653]

You are a real proud PNG. We are proud of you to still keep your language and culture strong in you. Like they say, you can take me away from PNG but you won't take away the PNG in me.

[@maienduo]

[@michaelkomba6703]

It's not endangered! You have a whole country of 10million people speaking it!

[@elalliance]

Thanks for your comment. Yes - it's her mother's language, Tawala, which is endangered but here she speaks in the language she is more comfortable in, Tok Pisin, which, as you say, is quite safe. We hope to present something in Tawala soon, as well.

[@soniaaviaaihi2229]

Tawala is the most spoken language in alotau District. Along with suau. Our languages are still alive and we are proud. Ta.

[@astronbay1646]

I didn't know that many mixed PNG live outside PNG..

[@quentinlopa]

Thank you for sharing. Very satisfying

[@danielauragasi1014]

Very impressive, Ilona Rayan! Being away from your home country for a very long time but your fluency in tok pisin is very impressive. Quite a sharp contrast to those indigenous Papua New Guineans who spent less than 10 years away from the country and have 'lost' their accent of tok pisin.

[@noelkomunt8264]

Thats not fluent. mixed with english

[@lanigee553]

Yes... Her pidgin fluency is admirable. Compared to some full-blooded PNGans who spend only a few years overseas and suddenly forget Tok Pisin

[@maducrutz9384]

I forgot tok pisin 😔 but then again my mum would hit me if I spoke it... She has anger issues...

[@Red_Lee-f3x]

Yu wokim gudpela samtin tru lo strongim tokples blong yumi long PNG. Yes loss of our indigenous language is a threat to this unique culture diversity we have in our island nation. New Guinea Binatang Research Center is currently doing a survey (ethnobiology) on our young generation (Grades 11&12s) in Secondary Schools across the country. From preliminary results there seems to be a 50 -60% loss of language uptake by the young generation.
