Do you know that the word "BERBAQUE" is from the Hausa word "BABBAKE"? Hausa people use the term “babbake” to mean singeing, grilling, toasting, or cooking food over an open fire. Historically, Hausa-speaking slaves took the word with them, from West Africa to America.

Do you know the new Hausa word “JEGARE”, which means “DRAGON”? - Jegare = jemage + ƙadangare Faced with naming a locally unknown animal, the “DRAGON”, Hausa linguists combined the names of “BAT” & “LIZARD” to come up with the portmanteau “JEGARE”. #RanarHausa #HausaPortmanteau

Hausa people are doggedly conservative in adopting modern practices, no matter the consequence! Hausa women in urban households are finally adopting charcoal stove, when in the past they'd only used firewood while selling the charcoal to non-Hausas who used it almost exclusively.

Origin of the name “MAKURDI” (a town in Benue State, Nigeria): When British colonialists came to the area now called "Makurdi", they asked for the person in charge. The locals kept referring to a rich merchant, whom they called "mai-kudi" (‘rich man’ in Hausa). #HausaWordOrigin
