The implication of exact words,
In two different languages
Is fascinating.
In English,
Small talk
Is something positively conversational.
The literal translation into Yoruba;
Small= wéwé
Talk= ejó
= ejo wéwé
It's negatively conversational.
It means talkativeness.
Whereas, the literal translation in English implies politeness or friendship.
So language involves immersion.
It's not fickle,though it's dynamic.
Skie's note;
I read something today,
"Black is a colour, not a race."
It's called "AFRICAN"
😘
That's small talk BTW.
Love ya... Vote!
