Omg!!! 1st to comment yipeeee! Okay Linda u just made my morning...this is so hilarious! I myself would have tripped lol. Nice one. Btw 2face is d wrongest one to ask such "just saying" I still love my 2baba regardless.
Its painful that i cant watch d video on desktop cos of admin restriction. But the word means second to last or next to last. inshort next to ultimate. Make i siddon for one side begin read oda peeps comment. ....@seglon
You all think its funny right, but in the real sense it is not. Education is very important and that is the reason why those who really call the shots are never celebrated but are wealthy cause they use willing people like these artistes who look for an easy way out all in the name of entertainment to do the work and wear out themselves with a couple of bucks in their pockets while the real money is made by the ones with the brains and some level of education. Just look at 2Face's explanation, he tried to be funny but it was so obvious he had no idea about the word and quite a lot of them as well. WHAT A SHAME.
kai!buh come to think of it o,this is really embarrassing,how is it that these ppl we all look up to as celebs have no clue as to the meaning of the word.wow!
Lol.. OMG This is sooo funny.. Lol I pity students of these days with all dem BB's etc and the constant abreviations ...its no wonder WAEC results are getting worse by the day. We have to start reading again as a nation! And by reading I dont mean blogs ..or hints magazine.. I mean reading classic novels, that'll help us expand our vocabulary. If penultimate becomes a trending word on twitter then you'll see people using it like say tomorrow no dey.. Just as how linda describes every well dressed person as looking "DAPPER" as if adjectives don finish for dictionary... ..Ngozi says so via my agbalumoberry
Lmao!I trust Dr Sid he never dissappoints and yeaa Ice Prince tried too!lol my aunty Tiwa I'm shy for you,after 'our' I went to sch in England?*covers face* I still love you tho mwuah!and 2Face lool!*lips sealed*
I beg all you "over sabi,I am well educated" that are yarning nonsense...these so called uneducated kats probably make way more money than you do and probably even earn more respect. We are not meant to know every single word in the dictionary and Penultimate is NOT an everyday word so please take several seats and shut up
Do u all knw every word in d dictionary an its meanin.u r mockin another.whats d meanin of laughin. anoy.12:54.anoy.12:52 swear.anoy.12:34"know" in one sentence pls no look ur dictionary
The presenter funny die. Many pple. no go show face for red carpet agn o if this exam continue. Hilarious... I wan laff beat celebrity comot for dem body... 'nyways, they r calling d shots so no wahala.
Honestly speaking, this is not something we should take for joke. Imagine all of the "stars" that were asked the meaning of the word penultimate, none seemed to know it except one. To make it worse was Tiwa's explanation instead of saying I don't know it. This shows how much we give to learning and it is a reflection of the Nigerian society.
We need to do more particularly our so called University students.
Linda nobi every LIBer d read ur blog wit devices capable of watchin onlyn videos...mayb u shud try uploading full text of some really funi clips, so some of us will nt miss out in situations lyk dis
Zinnia: The one wey funny pass to me na 9ice answer: something like peanut. Peanut ke?
The word really suffered in the mouth of the interviewees that night.
Kudos to those who got it: Dr Sid(why won't he get it; he is a doctor!), Ice Prince, Steve Onu(Yaw), Koffi(Candy man, Candy man) and others I can remember.
Woah, really hilarious! Thanks for posting this Linda, made my day! But on a more serious note, i am disappointed in Nigerians. This just goes to show that not everyone who goes to school is fit to be called Educated. Was disappointed to see Tiwa Savage didn't even know the meaning. Shame really.
I don't really expect so much from the Artistes. Afterall, most of them are products of our educational system. If you expand the survey area to Universities & Corporate areas, you'll be amazed @ the failure that will still be obtained
I tot 2face attended Esut, atleast in UNEC once a person gets 2 d level a step below final yr, he or she knows they're in their PENULTIMATE klas...inodawrds, wat we call d ''2nd 4rm last'' klass!
As i don read comments reach, i neva still see hu tell us d meaning of penultimate and una dey yab. U tell me wetin e be so dat me wey no go school go fit know am and den teach my children tiwa, tubaba n 9ce.
Seriously*not suprised* uneducated daft fools, now using jokes to cover up, n to fink dey haf all dat money n can't hire private tutors, dis idiots can't even be ambassadors of d country, complete waste of tym n energy listening to dem, our educational system seriously is bad.... Tiwa last tym I checked u were jand based, working wif big names so u dint learn anyfin dere, dumb head...... Shame to females, tu face all u knw is to impregnate women, how will u train ur kidz.... Am so pissed @ dis.... I dunt fink itz funny
This is so funny!!! I laugh tire. By the way even tho I av 3 degrees, 1 obtained outside Naija sef...I actually don't know what d word means. Seen it countless times jst never bothered to look it up. Take it easy on the celebs abeg, it's not every word errone knows...
Which Kain ESUT tuface go. Who dash am ? except now wey hin don get money. But na IMT hin for drop out shaa. Chikena. Meanwhile who tell u say na for only UNEC dem dey talk penultimate? Abi u follow for dos wey enter UNEC study physical education den dey form say na Biophysics.
Truth be said,it's a big shame and utterly pathetic that none of these folks know the simple meaning of 'Penultimate'.....Yet they know all the designer stuffs and waka around with fake accents. I asked my 6 yr old son this same question and he got it right.
because they are celebrities doesn't make them genuises.after all,that is not a word we use commonly in our day to day conversations.cut them some slack please...
My first ever comment on this blog: Jeeeeez....LWKMD. My English teacher (teacher of English) actually advised us to use penultimate instead of second to the last...Guess when.......Jss 3....Maayyyne...Kudos to my teachers....*still tryna contain my laughter*
as funny as this is, it is quite disgraceful. if you don't know why not just admit right off the bat instead of displaying your ignorance abi na stupidity for all to see and trying to make a joke of it?
its a lie, Tiwa Savage doesent know the meaning of penultimate? 4 real? the same tiwa that claims to have written songs for Monica, mary j blige? brought up in America? truth is she looks smarter than she is. did you guys xpect tuface to know the meaning? if he did, i would have eaten stones...
All these I am smart people on here and I read a lot or is it I am well educated may you kindly shut the fuck up already. Sorry to burst your fucken bubbles but carrying the whole dictionary in your condescending minds does not put money on the table any longer. I am a tutor to international students at one of the top schools in the world. These dudes can calculate the toughest math equations and formula in a micro minute but their English is next to zero. It does not stop them from earning money or being GOOD at what they do. So kindly shut the fuck up please. Naijas and oversabi and I am better than you attitude..., after all is said and done, the average uneducated joe is doing way better than them.....long ass hissssssss
Seriously all of you insulting dem for not knowin..am sure 90% of you jsst checked out the meaning cos it came up.if you were caught unawares you wld fail it 2.so chill out on dem celebs..LMAO tho
@anony,3:47PM. PENULTIMATE means 1,next to the last 2,anything that is next to the last,esp a penult. from Latin paene almost + ultimate, on the model of Latin paenultimus. for Example sentence ( your last sentence does not automatically follow from your penultimate sentence ). i hope u will understand it now

Zinnia:
It's true, we are not meant to know every word but when you read widely, you will come across such words.
I got to know about "penultimate" as a result of reading Newspapers.
My people READ! READ!! and READ!!! For those who take foreign exams like SAT, TOEFL, GRE etc such words would be a piece of cake!
Truth be said,it's a big shame and utterly pathetic that none of these folks know the simple meaning of 'Penultimate'.....Yet they know all the designer stuffs and waka around with fake accents. I asked my 6 yr old son this same question and he got it right.
