Descrição do livro

There are 7,170 languages in the world (Ethnologue 2026), and over half of the entire human population speaks just 23 of them.

‘Language is existential.
Without a language what are the people?'

Hausa is a major Afro-Asiatic language, primarily spoken in Nigeria and Niger by over 120 million people as a first or second language, and serving as a lingua franca in West Africa. It is a tonal language using both Latin (boko) and Arabic (ajami) scripts.
The language has a rich, largely Chadic vocabulary influenced by Arabic and English, and is used for media, education, and facilitating trade across the Sahel.

Speaker Population: Estimated at 73 million native speakers and 47 million second-language speakers (totalling120 million), making it the most spoken language within the Chadic branch.

Geographic Distribution: Primarily northern Nigeria and southern Niger, and with communities in Ghana, Cameroon, Benin, Togo, and Sudan.
