How do you express love in Ekpeye?

Let us know in the comments!

Learning a language forces vulnerability. You’re borrowing a voice that doesn’t fully feel like yours yet. You speak knowing you might be corrected, misunderstood, or even laughed at. And still, you speak. That’s courage.

Mistakes aren’t a side effect of language learning; they’re the pathway. Every mispronounced word, every awkward pause, every “sorry, let me try again” is proof that you’re showing up.

And showing up is harder than staying silent.
