I know that this is basically a shout into the abyss/void but if there is literally anyone from Agbede in Nigeria (north Edo state) that is fluent in the language and would be willing to teach, please reach out !!

There are literally no resources anywhere and with the very little that I know, I saw that the only app I found to learn Edo (Afemai wa mo) has many differences.

Unfortunately it seems like in my family, the language/dialect will die with my parents' generation and the thought the excruciating to think about.
