Growing up as a first generation Nigerian American, I unfortunately didn’t learn very well my parent’s native language, Edo (also known as Bini language). But i want to change that, and here is my plan to do so 🤭🇳🇬.

Hi . Just came across ur vidoes . Am Edo bini . And I recently started speaking bini fluently . This is what help me to learn . I give my self 5 years target to learn how to speak it since I understood the language but couldn’t speak it then . My parents speak it fluently At home I created a bini lessons for myself for 1 to 2 hours a day. Here I learn the body parts in Bini language and watch a 30 minutes vidoes of benin movie . Here I repeat words spoken in the movie bit by bit . When I get tired I stop . When am going out to job or on the train I play a single benin music on repeat for times that I do a month . To allow my brain to familiarise with the Song . And I end up singing the song back to front knowing all the words . And I speak to myself in benin language when am inside the room . It paid off . Now I can converse in benin. Give ur self long target so it won’t be stressed to you . And tell ur parent to speak to you in benin and repeat those words in English . That too will help . U will speak it . But give a long target and learn the language with ease not stressful. I did that for 5 years . With out stress .

Wow… thank you so much for this comment. It’s one thing to strive for something but hearing from someone who actually learned Bini is very encouraging. I will definitely try to implement some of this and will be modifying my timeline as well. Be blessed!
