  • S1 E5: Yoruba Pronouns (Àrọpò Orúkọ)
    Oct 22 2022

    Welcome to the future of language learning with African languages! The LinguaNaija Yoruba Podcast is the first of the LinguaNaija project and it's here to help you learn Yoruba anywhere and anytime!

    Nouns can be bothersome when excessively used in a sentence not to talk of excessively using them in successive sentences! This is why learning about pronouns in any language is very important. Pronouns help give a certain flow and mastery to a language and they certainly make you feel more confident when you master and use them in sentences.

    In today's episode, Eri explains how pronouns work in Yoruba and how you can use them! This is a bit of a difficult one so to make life easier you can access the free downloadable material on the website www.linguanaija.com.
