Dialects

It has several distinct dialects, provided that the regions in which you can hear it spoken are quite common, it does not seem so surprising that Hausa's numerous dialects will grow. It is possible to split down Hausa dialects into around three distinct groups: conventional dialects, northern dialects, and the dialect spoken in and surrounding Ghana. There are also a couple of other dialects, but they are not as common.

In terms of syntax and tonality, the northern dialects of Hausa vary from conventional dialects. As there is a lot of contact between Hausa speakers and groups of Tuareg and Zarma in the north, there have been several grammar changes. This exposure has also meant the lack of tonality that typical dialects have and had been altered to a pitch accent in northern dialects.

Countries spoken

Hausa is Western Africa's most spoken language. An approximate 22 million individuals are talking about it. Hausa is spoken as a second language by another 17 million people. Hausa is written in characters in Arabic, and about one-fourth of the words in Hausa come from Arabic. A lot of Hausa people can read and write Arabic. Some may still speak either English or French.
