Hello Nairaland Community,

Its been about 4 years since I have encountered this magical genre of music (Igbo Highlife) and I want to take on a project to translate all these songs to English on my website. I have played these songs over the years but do not understand what they are saying. I thought it was something that wouldn't even take me a week but after giving it to some Igbo friends I have still not been able to piece it all together because they said its different Igbo so I am bring the project here for community help. I want to translate every single word that comes out of the artiste's mouth.


if you know of any resource that has done this already, please direct me there, or if you have any suggestions on how to go about this project, please pm me.

E no matter if na one year project.

For any translation options that you would like to make, I would recommend you to use online services. If you want to get high-quality meaningful and logical translation, then you need only text, which translated manually. I understood this for a long time and use the service from this review https://translationreport.com/top-10-translation-services, and I trust only small translations of several phrases into a Google translator.

Everyone needs translation help who are basically working in the international process. As basically if I say everyone needs Translator to grow or to earn better. As you mentioned your need I am not sure it will be helpful to you or not but whenever I need help regarding the translation I generally use https://translatehub.org/category/courses/ this site. I mostly got solutions for every need. Apart from this, there are lots of other online tools available that can help us to resolve our translation problems.
