'This book provides a complete working course in Hausa, one of the most important languages of West Africa. It is the mother tongue of more than 20 million people living mainly in Northern Nigeria, and is spoken by 10 million others in neighbouring states. This course in Hausa introduces the grammar in a series of graded lessons, complete with test sentences, dialogue exercises, typical conversation pieces and some traditional fables and proverbs. Throughout the course, special attention is given to the problems of pronunciation. Easy-reference grammar tables and an extensive two-way vocabulary are also included.'
