Jeux de lettres et apprentissage du fulfulde

Abstract

The problem of teaching the Cameroonian languages has always sharpened the scientific and academic research. The implementation of this teaching is perceived as a practice in which it is necessary to pay attention given that the French and English languages are taking care of the truly authentic national identity of Cameroon. Moreover we observe a lack of political will to redefine the balanced relationship among Cameroonian and official languages. The present reflection proposes to set up a teaching method based on the Fulani word games. It appears as a real boost to the development of faculties or linguistic abilities of the Fulani language learners or not. Hence the question: how can we learn Fulfulde by the usage of its word games and combining business with pleasure? This fundamental question is to instill in the student the skills of graphic and phonetic words of the targeted language through fun. It is about getting learners to learn Fulani by playing word games, games which show the originality of this work for the development, promotion or learning of the local languages through a game that has never been explored, there is therefore a blank field. Guided by an experimental approach, the present contribution is based on existing literature and field surveys, setting the learning of Fulani through a game.
