try a translators book. or you can google it.
I would be careful she could be scamming you.
Most languages can be learned in part online. Check out the following link to basics in greetings and such. Buy yourself a Nigerian dictionary at Amazon or something.

Maybe you should read Chinua Achebe’s “Things Fall Apart.” First of all, Achebe is simply _the_ author in Nigeria, perhaps even Africa; secondly, the end is a glossary of Ibo words–assuming she’s not Yoruba or Hausa–and this may be helpful. Of course, you may prefer simply to learn Swahili. Resources will be easier to find; she may very well understand it; and, unlike any other Bantu languages, you won’t have to learn intonations.
