Hey there, Mia Chloe
I had a little confusion though! Before replying to you, I checked your Ninjastic data. I saw your local was Nigeria (Naija), but everyone is talking about Pidgin. Is Pidgin the mother tongue of Nigeria (Naija)? My question maybe out of line, I don't know!
Hi , DYING_SOUL
Nice question. Here's a brief:
Well Nigeria is a diverse nation. We have over 300 ethnic groups or tribes and in those ethnic groups we have subs and altogether we have around 700+ languages though some are very rare. Anyways pidgin is more of a general language in Nigeria just like English is in some non English countries we speak English too but let's just every Nigerian virtual knows how to speak pidgin.
Nigerian pidgin originated from a town in the South - south region of Nigeria called
WARRI and it spread out through the country and even neighbouring countries. Pigin is the easiest language that every Nigerian understands (both the educated and non- educated).
Mia, our friend, unfortunately after some deliberations we've concluded that there is no need of a 2nd back-up translator for Pidgin in the Alliance right now. Although you are more than welcome in this thread and you will be the first candidate for the position in the event that one of the current translators fails, the fact is that they are doing a great job and I don't think we need help at the moment with that specific language.
Nevertheless, if there is a topic you are particularly interested in translating, you can ask them and I'm sure that they will give you the opportunity to contribute in that way.
We really appreciate your willingness!!
