tomakint: I think English has come to stay in its domineering status the more reason we often blend our dialect with English.In my own candid opinion, I believe English has usurp many languages in Nigeria except for a few, take a look at the Yoruba language, there is what we call the [size=13pt]ilana afetiya[/size](words borrowed from the way we hear the pronunciation) and [size=14pt]ilana afojuya[/size](words borrowed from the way they are written). Our environment didn't allow one to relate in one's dialect, and this is bad!

!!!! Bros you are not YORUBA You don't even know how to write Yoruba. Ilana what exactly because the translation does not follow what you wrote

I am sad now. Some people don't even seem to care. How can you not care that you can no longer speak your mother tongue fluently?
It all starts with changing attitudes.

Every minute i open my mouth to talk. I cant speak igbo without adding english

I used to be guilty of this (used to be), but growing up as a child, you know no better. Your speech mirrors those you grow up around, and those who I grew up around had (and to an extent still have) a habit of mixing in English with my native language. It is sad because, as it turns out, many of the things expressed in English actually have native equivalents. People try to make excuses by saying that English is easier, but honestly, I believe that native fluency is dwindling. Little to no emphasis is placed on actively speaking, preserving and developing ones native language. So the high degree of code-switching is to be expected.
