The Rhymnig Leopard, AKA Nigerian English

[Doug Harris]

Jolly good article, revealing as it does not only assorted linguistic
quirks of the former British colony but also a peculiar practice of
local leopards (thus the name of this post) and no less than a look-see
at a darker side of how English is capitalized on there by _Yahoo-Yahoo
Boys_.
Thanks, Joel. I'm sure this will be of big big (sic) interest to some here.
