The warmth and generosity of the African. Makes one begin to picture what the initial encounter between the first European sojourners in Africa and the African must have looked like.
Grew up in Zaria in Kaduna State and seeing you speaking Yoruba makes me want to relearn Hausa. After that I'll study Yourba (the language of Fela Kuti). Nigeria has a special place in my heart. Nagode da yawa abukiya.
Inferiority complex as some of y'all said might play some roles but Nigerians esp Yorubas r usually more friendly 2wards visitors or any other tribes n dat explained how our ancestors fell into Oyinbo/foreigners traps.
Knowledge for knowledge's sake is always something to be respected. As much as I'm proud of my culture, language and ancestry, there's no material reason for an outsider to learn Yoruba. So I think it's fair enough to be excited about a foreigner learning about your language and culture purely out of an interest in who you are and what you're like.
Titi devoted her communication skill learning the real Yoruba.. Not the anglosized Lagos ...Yoruba.. Her pronunciation help with the correct vowel and that's why it good to the ear.Yet you can her south American influence...Well done Titilayo
colonialism is a twisted nightmare that Africa just cannot seem to be rid of. We, as a nation have to start valuing our heritage and priceless information. smh
great job titilayo. nothing is more beautiful than people coming together in love and understanding. u are putting to shame or at least to reflection, a lot of young africans who do not speak their own language.
I'm a brazilian guy, practioner of Yoruba traditional religion. In Brazil, the yoruba and dahomeans slavers created a religion named Candomble, wich keep alive the traditions of Yoruba Orishas and Dahomean Voduns worshipness. So in our awon ile-ijosin, houses of worshipness, we sing and pray in Yoruba language, and some houses of Vodun worshipness, in Ewe-fon language. So to learn yoruba language is a matter of resistance for us. In Brazil, considering that we are being ruled by a fascist and racist christian government, under the fascist Jair Bolsonaro, there is a kind of persecution against the worshipers of Yoruba Orishas and Dahomean Voduns and against the Amazonian jungle people, the 'indigenas'. They want to impose their neopentecostal religion against us.
@@danfiesta1 it's still Yoruba though right? There are different dialects for different languages. Hausa has many dialects, Fulfulde has different dialects, etc etc
I have a friend who speaks Latvian, Latvia is a little country in the Baltics and this was back in 03 before they joined the e.u to even see a black person on the streets was such a big deal for these people they stop us everytime to take pix and to hear that he speaks Latvian they also freaked out now its 2013 the number of blacks in Latvia has significantly increased its no longer a big deal same way titilayo is no longer a big deal in Ibadan because I called and asked my friends.
Your right but they have to do it for their selves and no one else. It didn't transpire over night with me. My cousin gave me a book and said read it because you might like it and it led to other things. I know a lot of people wont wake up but if I start with self and my offspring, it'll be another minus to the stereotype.
ah ah na lie!! dis na feelm treek o!! dis ting weak me pass o dis oyinbo girl just made my day I stumbled on this video by accident and i'v watched each and every one of her videos at first I thought it was some sort of gimmick or acting now I understand she does speak Yoruba the un-adulterated kind and for that I find her sexy she is smart engaging and charming no wonder people wants to marry her or marry her off I mean look at her! wassup titi!! nice 1 making Nigerians proud everywhere.
Titilayo may God be with u,you are a Positive messenger of Yoruba around the world,imagine even people that are living in Yoruba land can not speak good yoruba llike you,U are good
That's incorrect, Yoruba has always been a part of Republic du Benin as you know, Republique du Benin (formely Dahomey) is a bordering nation to Nigeria. I agree that the ones in Togo may be immigrants, but the ones in Republique du Benin are native Yoruba.
@blackbot4000, i am afraid there is hardly anything she can do about the accent; when someone is fully grown before learning a new language, it is almost impossible to speak it without accent.
and to all thinking the old man in the video the oloye is not proud of his culture or is inferior that's totally not true its human nature its not an everyday occurrence you see a white woman besides south Africans who has an excellent command of an African dialect sub-consciously he cant grasp or wrap his head around the fact that this woman speaks Yoruba, instinctively he does what comes natural everybody does it when I speak Russian to a Russian 80percent of the time they respond in english
The generalization is strong in you. It has nothing to do with her being white, but foreign. She isn't Nigerian, and Nigerians treat foreigners better for their own personal agenda. I wish other countries were like that. A Nigerian in America is treated like a second class citizen.
what's the meaning of Igbo Ora in the yoruba language cus that sounds Igbo to me.. in Igbo, "Igbo ora" means Igbos in diaspora or Igbos world-wide.. I wish whites could welcome blacks this way..
ive seen the videos before. i went to nigeria recently and now seen the video again. still wishing i could learn and speak it as well as she does. will do if i get a yoruba husband amin :)
I think she's doing very well; especially as she tries to say every word in Yoruba. I disagree with you @21wf that she should simply focus on pronouncing gb & p. I feel it is the accent she should focus on getting right. With the right accent & tone, she would sound more convincing than just getting gb & p right!
@YoungFemzilla:Here's a wonderful example. A foreigner, look at how much she admire Yoruba Lang. Many Nigerian's living in Nigeria would not even try speak Yoruba to their children which is really stupid. I am a Nigerian man living in the U.S. every time I visit Nigeria, I don't speak English at all, I speak pure Yoruba. If anyone that I know understands Yoruba speaks English to me, I refused to speak English to them and I tell them I am not American, so please speak my native lang.
no it isn't' those are just immigrants. i'm talking about the mainland. because if you put it like that we can add brazil, america, london, and the caribbean's to the list
No, it's about Economics Brotha' Ladipo,how many Black Americans,those that ARE conscious of ISESE,how many of us can even afford to be gone 4-6 months away from our family,and jobs to learn fluent Yoruba. I stopped feeling guilty,and concentrated on what I know,i can do:Spanish, English, French,and Fulani.Yoruba,UNLESS one can be there 4-6 months to master enough to speak well ,all they will do is laugh....
No Fish Gloss,that is the way it is,like the WWE Wrestler Mark Henry says,"Because that's what I do !". Inbox me,and I will go deeper into why they(Yoruba Nigerians ) do that.
@YoungFemzilla: Don't be ashamed of yourself. If the people you grew up with respect and value the language they were born into, they would have introduced you to it.

Nice one.... Kudos to you Titilayo
Titi just became one of my fav girls! :) Bless
These people seem genuinely nice.

I was in Igbo-ora on that day for that ceremony, but I couldn't wait to get back to Lagos, I was in a hurry
Wooow titi..Keep it real ooo
colonialism is a twisted nightmare that Africa just cannot seem to be rid of. We, as a nation have to start valuing our heritage and priceless information. smh
great job titilayo. nothing is more beautiful than people coming together in love and understanding. u are putting to shame or at least to reflection, a lot of young africans who do not speak their own language.
May you long live Oba of IgboOra and Titilayo Oyinbo! Olohun a so e dagba ju boo se ro lo. Amin
Love Titilayo! She's speaking more yoruba than the Yoruba man is in the beginning !!!!!
Awwn❤️
I just found this namesake.
Thanks for visiting my town.
I like how the meeting ends with a song and dance. I think Queen Elizabeth of England should finish her meetings with a dance as well
i need 2 start learning and speaking yorubaaaa
seeing a white girl speakin it, nd me lukin at subtitlessss
TRAGIICCCC
Pele o… How far have you gone now?
Chief Oladokun was conversing in English, while Titi was responding in Yoruba? What is wrong with the picture?.
she enjoying herself. i love that.
this girl puts me to shame...i will learn too...luckily i understand yoruba
lol. the man was so eager to take a picture with the ''oyinbo''
De tin weaken me ooo! Na waa!
Bur it all boils down to the fact that we still have so much complex about oyinbo and Oyinbos.
Nice video 👍👍👍👍
oloye to so oyinbo, oyinbo dahun pelu yoruba

Woow I'm so glad you people chose to stand your ground by not letting the tradition of your ancestors perish
That is incorrect, Yoruba is also spoken in Republique du Benin and possibly Togo
their yoruba is different..its called Egun
@@danfiesta1 it's still Yoruba though right? There are different dialects for different languages. Hausa has many dialects, Fulfulde has different dialects, etc etc
@@MalamIbnMalam Yes.Yoruba are massive in Nigeria..They owns different states
I have a friend who speaks Latvian, Latvia is a little country in the Baltics and this was back in 03 before they joined the e.u to even see a black person on the streets was such a big deal for these people they stop us everytime to take pix and to hear that he speaks Latvian they also freaked out now its 2013 the number of blacks in Latvia has significantly increased its no longer a big deal same way titilayo is no longer a big deal in Ibadan because I called and asked my friends.

I don't know what game he's playing, maybe he's trying to show her that he can respond back in her language while she speaks to him in his.
Titilayo, o si gbadun o, ka re!!!..:)

It was just as if Titilayo was the one recieving chieftaincy title on that day....i love yoruba hospitality .

Excuse me, but you shouldnt refer to them with those choice of words.
Peace.
omg!!! Let us know if you have twins!
what's the meaning of Igbo Ora in the yoruba language cus that sounds Igbo to me.. in Igbo, "Igbo ora" means Igbos in diaspora or Igbos world-wide.. I wish whites could welcome blacks this way..
Igbó in yoruba means forest or weed(marijuana).
ive seen the videos before.
i went to nigeria recently and now seen the video again.
still wishing i could learn and speak it as well as she does.
will do if i get a yoruba husband

Twins! Always prepare okra among your daily relish to safe guard their growth and fast delivery. I love you.
Not just the language but racks are accepted in any culture lol

I love it
White titi.. wonderful 👏😆💖
It's official. Those twins are coming.
Yoruba people are so friendly
BEcause he's scared she might not understand the very original accent he have.
My child CIA and FBI are capable of anything
You are somehow right o bro
