    Miss Blessing, I started watching your videos about 2 months ago. I found you and your videos after my family took a DNA test and found we had a 100% match to Yoruba people on my father's side. Please do not stop! With your help, I'm learning the language that was taken from my family during slavery. You clearly have a passion for what you are doing, and you can help make a difference in peoples lives. Keep going, we love you!!!!!

    Blessing, I hope you are able to travel to Nigeria soon and you are happy there. I visited in 2016 with my husbands family and loved it. A good idea for you, childrens books to learn about Yoruba. My husband is Yoruba (I'm White Manx) and I searched for childrens books last year but struggled. I have 'A fun ABC' by Sade Fadipe and Shedrach Ayalomeh which is wonderful, but I need more! The culture is so rich and it's a shame we don't have more books to read / show our children. Good to see you posting videos again. I look forward to your website ❤

    4:25 there are certain half-English phrases that have become so thouroughly embedded in Yoruba that you hear them all the time, that "ma worry" is a prime example. Another English word I hear all the time (even if people are speaking 99.9% pure Yoruba) is "so" (and just as I was typing this you proved my point, lol 4:33)

    May I ask where you learned Yoruba? I'm African American and learned that most of my ancestry is Nigerian (Yoruba) and Cameroon. I wanted to learn Yoruba, Swahili, and French. (I love the sound of Yoruba. It sounds so fun and happy). There aren't many resources I can find on deep grammar. Thank you. :D

      Try watching a lot of yoruba movies with subtitles and combine that with classes. You will learn in a year. You have to immerse yourself daily. My yoruba friend learned Spanish this way by watching telumundo almost all day every day. Now she is a High School Spanish teacher
