u sure say hausa na yr tribe?
why using the word 'thread'?
Babu meaning thread a hausance ne aboki?

There are two types of thread in Hausa.

Zare - strong thread providing strength. ( like a string)
Abawa - a softer thread with more cotton or wool on it suitable for proving cover( clothing)

There is a Hausa radio discussion program called " Zare da Abawa" you can say literally " string and thread " for the same analogy NL discussion segment is called. "thread".

Cunt_Destroyer: To be honest if not for those Bokos and religious zealots the North is the best place to be in Nigeria. The worst has to be the SW. Terrible dirty ugly people and bad food.

There is a nice app by a Nigerian that you can use to learn the 3 languages. It is called Naijapedia. I think it is available on the blackberry app world for blackberry users and there is a link for other users. I will have to check for it and post it here!

tempex88: ruwa - water.
kasuwa - market
inakwana - good morning
ba gajia - No problem
akoi gajia - there is problem
naira danlati - 30 naira
ki - pronoun for woman
ka - pronoun for man
yanrinya - young lady


pronounciation matters a lot cos a sentence can have so many different meaning.

Commendable but Gajiya means tired.

So when someone is asked Ina Kwana?. . .How was your night?

The response is Ba Gajiya - No tiredness. . .which means your night was really really good.

Cunt_Destroyer:

I have traveled everywhere in Nigeria and the North and her people remain the most hospitable and welcoming.

of course I know that my dear.if not for the boko haram insurgence,the north is a good place to live walahi! One thing I love about the hausa people is that they appreciate any non-hausa that speaks their language.I have so many hausa friends from my Alma Mater whose parents are top shots in nigeria.have you tried buying something from a hausa man and you speak hausa to him? Your guess is as good as mine.
