Language Study
Topic: Language & Culture
Posted on behalf of the Anthis family:

Hausa language study has begun. Joel and Cindy are meeting with Maluum Garba each day in the morning, and practicing what they learn in the market, on the station, and around town during the day. So you will start to learn with us as well. "Sanu" = hello. "Yaya uwargida" = How is your wife? Cindy tried this Hausa phrase out on a man in Abuja. He replied in English, "but you have only asked me about my first wife. You must say "Yaya amarie" to ask how is my new wife." So let us say "Salamu alaikum" to you all, which means "Peace unto you!"
