Pidgin has been a thing for a long time

 

[Gore San]

But does it really have to exist? They didn't do a very good job making it. It really just looks like they did speech to text on an African with a heavy accent. Reminds me of pig Latin with how useless it is. It looks like how I would type if I were trying to mock Africans, only I would add a few ooga booga unga bungas and poo poo pee pee doo doo wee wees in there somewhere.

It has different grammatical rules than English. Hell, it's not even in the same language family

 

[Gore San]

It's just broken bad English spelled with a thick accent and butchered into something that looks like what I would type if i am trying to be offensive. It looks like how people would type doing the we wuz kangz meme fused with knuckles Uganda. It's English spelled phonetically to the accent they have.

"Di new year, 2024, dey barely one week old, but inside dat seven days, gunmen don kill about 30 pipo and kidnap more dan 80 odas as insecurity kontinu to rise for several states across Nigeria."

Do yew no di wey? I will show yew did wey. Yew must drink da pee pee poo watah to see da ansesta. We wuz kangz.

 

[Gore San]

Now just imagine all these being read by Ugandan knuckles.

I love how these just get more unhinged like an actual shitpost copypasta.

 

[Busty O'Queef]

Imagine getting mad because you can't read pidgin! NGMI

 

[Gore San]

I can read it perfectly fine since it's just broken English with a phonetic spelling of an accent. That's why there is multiple forms of it. I just find it absurd because it's something I do all the time to troll being used to write news articles. I should see how much pay they give for writing normal articles in we wuz kangz speak.

Nigeria destroyed dey 2.5 tons of di seized elephant tusks worth $11.2 million on Tuesday as part of di campaign to curb dey wildlife trafficking.

“Wi are proud to be at di forefront of di fight against di illegal ivory trade. Today’s ivory crushing is dey symbol of Nigeria’s unwavering kommitment to wildlife conservation and di protection of our natural heritage,” said Isiak Salako, Minister of State for Environment.

He said di powder from di crushed tusks would be used to build a symbolic national park monument in di country’s capital.

Nigeria is fighting di illegal collection of elephant tusks. Di country was suspended from CITES in 1989 due to di rise of illegal wildlife trade and poor enforcement of conservation regulations. Di suspension was lifted in 2011.

CITES is a legally binding multilateral treaty dat aims to protect endangered plants and animals from di threats of international trade, AA writes.

Dey show us di wey.

It's best ones are where there's a bunch of regular English words that don't translate to pidgin, I like to imagine someone reading the whole thing out in a thick african accent except that part, which comes out in pure BBC newsreader.

 

[Gore San]

That's exactly how I was imagining it.
