Sabon Harshe

My username Sabon Harshe means 'new language' in Hausa. It is a reference to the great diversity of languages in Nigeria, with some being discovered even in recent years.

I am active on Hausa Wikipedia, but am interested in languages of Africa in general.

Happy to join Dinka Wiki Thuɔŋjäŋ.
