The Spoken English of the Hausa Learner of English: A Perception with an Attitude (B)

The impact of English as a language is flet globally and perhaps in every country, only a few people do not speak or come into contact with it. In Nigeria, the status of English as a second language is held in high esteem. Though, the position of English is high in Nigeria among both educated and non-educated but its linguistic texture in the spoken area, is being treated with a negative attitude of perceptibility and comprehensibility. This paper, examines a particular scenario, whereby the spoken English in use is not only a deviant away from the Standard British English, but also the Standard Nigerian English (Odumuh 1987) and Nigerian Phonological English (Hausa) of (Jibril 1982). The paper continues to investigate the dilemma of spoken English from many dimensions, and fears that this deviance is actually imposing on other English phonological varieties of ethnicity around it. If this attitude persists, the Hausa learner of oral English will be either cut off nor tap the full benefits of Information Communication Technology. In conclusion, it shows that the pedagogy of teaching has not really influenced learning, because looking at other scenarios where Arabic is taught as a second language the perception of both segments and prosody is done with ease. The paper warns that, if precaution is not taken at the teaching dimension the attitude of the Hausa learner of the phonological systems of English will completely be negative.
