The word is cognate with forms meaning ' death ' in other Semitic and Afro-Asiatic languages: with Arabic موت mawt ; with Hebrew מות ( mot or mavet ; ancient Hebrew moth or maweth ); with Maltese mewt ; with Syriac mautā ; with Ge ' ez mot ; with Canaanite, Egyptian, Berber, Aramaic, Nabataean, and Palmyrene מות ( mwt ); with Jewish Aramaic, Christian Palestinian Aramaic, and Samaritan מותא ( mwt ’); with Mandaean muta ; with Akkadian mūtu ; with Hausa mutuwa ; and with Angas mut.

Other widely spoken Afroasiatic languages are Amharic, the national language of Ethiopia, with 18 million native speakers ; Somali, spoken by around 19 million people in Greater Somalia ; and Hausa, the dominant language of northern Nigeria and southern Niger, spoken by 18. 5 million people and used as a lingua franca in large parts of the Sahel, with some 25 million speakers in total.

His linguistic publications cover a wide range of African languages, including the Gbe languages, Nuer, Kpelle, Shilluk, Hausa, and Guang.

Hausa is one of Africa's largest spoken languages after Arabic, French, English, Portuguese and Swahili.

Hausa belongs to the West Chadic languages subgroup of the Chadic languages group, which in turn is part of the Afro-Asiatic language family.

This link between non-tonality and geographic location is not limited to Hausa alone, but is exhibited in other northern dialects of neighbouring languages ; such as the difference within Songhay language ( between the northernmost Koyra Chiini and Koyraboro Senni dialects of Timbuktu and Gao, and the Zarma dialect, spoken from western Niger to northern Ghana ), and within the Soninke language ( between the northernmost dialects of Imraguen and Nemadi spoken in east-central Mauritania, and the southern dialects of Senegal, Mali and the sahel ).

Because of this, and the surrounding Akan, Gur and Mande languages, Gaananci was historically isolated from the other Hausa dialects.

Another difference between native and non-native Hausa is the omission of vowel length in words and change in the standard tone of native Hausa dialects ( ranging from native Fulani and Tuareg Hausa-speakers omitting tone altogether, to Hausa speakers with Gur or Yoruba mother tongues using additional tonal structures similar to those used in their native languages ).

Use of masculine and feminine gender nouns and sentence structure are usually omitted or interchanged, and many native Hausa nouns and verbs are substituted for non-native terms from local languages.

Non-native speakers of Hausa number around 25 million, and in some areas live close to native Hausa. Hausa has replaced many other languages especially in the North Central and North Eastern part of Nigeria, and continue gaining popularity in other parts of Africa as a result of Hausa movies and musics which spread out throughout the region.

Hausa, Yoruba, and Igbo are the most widely used Nigerian languages.

Albanian, Arabic, Assyrian ( VSO and VOS are also followed, depending on the person ), Berber, Bulgarian, Chinese, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, Italian, Ganda, Greek, Hausa, Hebrew, Javanese, Kashmiri, Khmer, Latvian, Macedonian, Polish, Portuguese, Quiche, Rotuman, Russian, Serbian, Spanish, Swahili, Thai, Vietnamese, Yoruba and Zulu are examples of languages that can follow an SVO pattern.

* Many Afroasiatic languages in the Chadic, Cushitic and Omotic families have register-tone systems, such as Chadic Hausa.

Language families which distinguish ejective consonants include all three Caucasian families ( Northwest Caucasian languages, Northeast Caucasian languages and Kartvelian Georgian language ); the Athabaskan, Siouan and Salishan families of North America, along with the many diverse families of the Pacific Northwest from central California to British Columbia ; the Mayan family and Aymara ; the southern varieties of Quechua ( Qusqu-Qullaw ); the Afro-Asiatic family ( notably most of the Cushitic and Omotic languages, Hausa and South Semitic languages like Amharic and Tigrinya ) and a few Nilo-Saharan languages ; Sandawe, Hadza, and the Khoisan families of southern Africa.

Gaananci exhibits noted inflected influences from Zarma, Gur, Dyula and Soninke, as Ghana is the westernmost area in which the Hausa language is a major lingua-franca ; as well as it being the westernmost area both the Hausa and Djerma ethnic groups inhabit in large numbers.

Gradually Borno's position weakened ; its inability to check political rivalries between competing Hausa cities was one example of this decline.

The Niger is called Jeliba or Joliba " great river " in Manding ; Orimiri or Orimili " great water " in Igbo ; Egerew n-Igerewen " river of rivers " in Tuareg ; Isa Ber " big river " in Songhay ; Kwara in Hausa ; and Oya in Yoruba.

More than 250 ethnic groups are native to Nigeria, and many more have immigrated there in recent years ; the largest ethnic groups are the Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba.

A few languages utilise ejective fricatives: in some dialects of Hausa, the standard affricate is a fricative ; Ubykh ( Northwest Caucasian, now extinct ) had an ejective lateral fricative ; and the related Kabardian also has ejective labiodental and alveolopalatal fricatives,.

The xalam is commonly played in Mali, Gambia, Senegal, Niger, Northern Nigeria, Northern Ghana, Burkina Faso, Mauritania, and Western Sahara ; it is also known in other languages as bappe, diassare, hoddu ( Pulaar ), koliko ( Gurunsi ), kologo ( Frafra ), komsa, kontigi ( Hausa ), koni, konting ( Mandinka ), molo ( Songhay / Zarma ), ndere, ngoni ( Bambara ), and tidinit ( Hassaniyya Arabic ).

To simplify matters, we will refer to them here as the Hausa, Yoruba, and Igbo-based ; or Northern, Western and Eastern parties.
