Jamila Lyiscott is a girl which could speak English in
three tongue and she decided to treat all three of her languages as equals
because she is articulate. Who controls
the articulation ? English language is a multifaceted oration subject to
indefinite transformation. She is a tri-lingual orator which used differently
in home, school and friends. She could speak like “What’s good ?” “Whatagwan”
and “Hello”. Sometimes she is consistent with the language which is used now
then switch it up to reduce the boredom. Sometimes she fight back two tongues,
while she uses the other one in the classroom and when she mistakenly mix them
up and feel crazy like she is cooking in the bathroom. She do know that she had

tired of the negative image and nonsensical racial disparity that made her
people mad. She emphasize that not to be confusion and hesitation because this
is not a promotion of ignorance but this is a linguistic celebration.
