SugaBelly's Language Challenge

  SugaBelly's Language Challenge by Mwajim Al 

I did say I wanted to do this. *warning - I didn't really know what to say, and I'm out of practice* - *hides face* - Enjoy!

Here is the transcript:

Hello my people. My name in the blogsphere is Mwajim. I’m a Bura girl from Adamawa State in Nigeria. I was born here in the United States and did my primary and secondary school at home. I know you have never heard this language before, and I want you all to know what the north of Nigeria isn’t all Hausas (*gasp*, no this was not in Bura). There are different languages, and everyone has a way of doing their thing. And now I don’t know what else to talk about, so I’ll leave you. Later.

  1. Coolest language i've heard so far and your voice is so sonorous or is it melodious. I'm so jealous. I want to learn to speak like that :)

  3. This sounds a lot like Hausa!
    I've heard someone speak Bura once but the person had more hausa words in there than the actual language.
    And I agree with Sting, your voice is very melodious, wish your audio post was longer :)
