Social Media Languages and their Effects to Language Learning - Onyeji Nnaji

Image
Language is environmental and the society is the core breeder of the language of use at every moment. The language dominant in a society generally influences and determines the level of acquisition any language learner has.

Nigerians do not think of peopling others, instead they subscribe to the later.
