Samuel Ajayi Crowther father of Yoruba linguistics. Without him, we wouldn’t have the modern Yoruba spoken today in West Africa, northeast Brazil and across the Caribbean. He created its first written alphabet, built its first dictionary, and translated the Bible into the native tongue.

Question for MP community about passing on Yoruba

I understand Yoruba, but when I speak, it sounds shit and robotic. What are practical ways I can pass this on to my child, who is 6 months old? Do I need to become better at speaking Yoruba myself?

For context: We plan on doing OPOL with English/Spanish. I've been speaking to him in Yoruba (phrases/words) and playing Yoruba songs.

Has anyone had experience adding Yoruba, or other Nigerian/African languages, as part of a multilingual setup for their child? Would love to hear how it worked out.

Great platform but SIPP transfers from other providers do take a while. You have to be prepared to be patient and badger the customer service operators. I initiated my transfer on 20th June from Wealthify and was completed on 6th August.

Are there sentence/words you've said to an African parent that's resulted in them changing their ways or reconsidering their approach to parenting?

If we could rebuild the NHS from scratch, what would you change to make it fit for the modern era?

Funding aside, let’s assume the budget’s fixed, what would you actually redesign?

Why do protests in Belfast tend to get so much more intense and organised than protests over on UK mainland? Cars set on fire, proper coordination, the whole thing. Is it all down to the Troubles, or is there more going on that I’m missing?
