Isu ese re tobi ati lewa!

You should do a lesson on how to have like full conversations with people. Or putting words together to make certain sentences.

[@DiamanteBox]

Thanks Simone! I'll bring on other yoruba speakers so we can illustrate how to have conversation and formulate sentences. x

[@proverbalizer]

those of us who didn't grow up speaking Yoruba are gonna be easily tripped up by words with similar/same spellings, but different meanings unless you really break it down and emphasize the difference in pronunciation for us: Teeth / Back and Work / Poverty are examples that have come up already in your lessons your lessons are great, but help us avoid asking for a dentist to fix our back, and going to the chiropractor to crack our teeth, lol

[@DiamanteBox]

Lool absolutely! Will do a lesson on homophones!

[@theartistlol3279]

Fola the ProVerbalizer you can know what is being used by reading the sentences.

[@ipaja5515]

​@The artist Lol u mean context, right?

[@ipaja5515]

From what I know back is ehin, teeth is eyin and egg is eyin. I think cos yoruba is a tonal language u can essentially get away with misspelling words as they sound similar when speaking. And yes that's ehin for back not eyin

The meaning is calves. Another excellent video. I thank Elohim for your life.

[@caoimhincaoimhin]

Very good teacher! Thank you! Other body words: cheek chin blood bone skin neck nipple liver spleen spine bladder gall bladder intestines wrist ankle heel palm knuckle joint cartilage tendon kidney lung finger toe hip glands womb and of course some other very interesting words we are all dying to know but will just have to look up for ourselves!

Hi

[@meganiyoha3132]

I just love these videos!! my husband is from nigeria and it is so nice to be able to talk (a little bit) to him in his own language! he does speak great english and teaches me Yoruba. I am also able to teach our baby yoruba too! shes getting it! she can say how are you, eyes, and first part of her middle name (Ebunoluwa)! shes 1 years old! thank you for these videos they are such great help!!

[@DiamanteBox]

awww that's so precious! I'm glad you found the videos helpful! x

[@ipaja5515]

please please continue talking to your child in full Yoruba. there's a silly fallacy that many naija parents(who live in western world)make that say if u talk english and Yoruba to a child it'll confuse them. it's absolute RUBBISH. your child will pick up perfect english outside the house at school with friends and other family from tv etc. it's the Yoruba they need more exposure to for those who live outside naija.

[@meganiyoha3132]

@@ipaja5515 yes! We have 2 kids now and they both speak English and Yoruba 🙌

[@ipaja5515]

@@meganiyoha3132 well done! And great for messaging back despite u left original message two years ago. Think of the effort yr children will save in the future by having learnt the language now. And all for free!

Hi Blessing, pls what yoruba dialect are you using to teach, is it the Lagos dialect?

[@DiamanteBox]

Hi Ada, the Oyo dialect is the foundational dialect of yoruba and that is the broad dialect i am speaking in. Hope this helps.

I want lessons with you!!! I need help! Oko mi ni Yoruba and I must know how to speak much Yoruba. 😊

[@ramalamam]

Please do one on adjectives

[@DiamanteBox]

Will do!!

[@ayabakyria9054]

you said back is Eyin but you pronounced it as Enyi why is that?

[@mohammedcharlesmurphy2837]

i think she does it in error. for instance, some people pronounce "ask" as "aks" (supposedly, i'm one of them). sometimes, the brain transposes letters without the speaker realising it.

[@prettyjoyekpo4983]

Please you did not make mention of breast and other body part why?

[@DiamanteBox]

Lool breast is Oyan (OR-YAN)

[@ipaja5515]

and penis, vagina and even other major parts like FOOT. because penis/farm/husband all have same spelling in Yoruba that's why i think it's important for #BlessingKayode to include the proper Yoruba spelling with all the accents and most esp the dots under the vowels and "s" in the subtitles...

[@karatekoala4270]
