is anyone interested in learning krio (main language of sierra leone) or do we have anyone who can already speak some? other than myself, that is... it's based on english with some typically west african grammar and some words borrowed from various other languages (mende, temne, susu, yoruba, twi, arabic, portuguese, french). it's easy and fun and will help loads if you visit sierra leone.

I'm interested in learning as much as I can over the next few months before I go to Sierra Leone in May. Specifically I would love to learn good questions for conversation in getting to know people as friends.
