Lesson 12
Topic: English as a second language
Nigerian English
English was introduced in Nigeria with the establishment of British trading contacts on the West African coast in the sixteenth century and began to be formally studied from the middle of the nineteenth century on. In the 1880s, the missionary stations were ordered to teach English in their schools to Africans who would serve British colonial and trade interests.
In Nigerian education today, English plays a key role. There is no uniform accent of English spoken throughout Nigeria. Nigerian English is usually divided into several sub-varieties, with a continuum of degrees of competence in English as a typical characteristic of a country where English functions as a second language.
The official language of Nigeria, English, was chosen to facilitate the cultural and linguistic unity of the country.
The choice of English as the official language was partially related to the fact that part of Nigerian population spoke English as result of British conolisation that ended in 1960.
English was the first language, however, remains an exclusive preserve to a small minority of the country’s urban elite, and it is not spoken at all in some rural areas.
Nigerian Pedgin English, often known simply as Pidgin or broken (broken english), is also popular lingua franca, though with varying regional influences on dialect and slang.
Stress in nigerian english appeared to be influenced by the tone syllable in many nigerian languages and for that reason many english words may be wrongly assigned stress irrespective of their class category.
The following english words may be stressed thus ‘madam’ [ma’dam], ‘’recognize’’ [rekog’niz], ‘’import’’[im’port] and ‘’record’’ [re’kord].
