Originally published to meet the need for a practical dictionary
both for native Hausa speakers and for those wishing to learn or
improve their knowledge of the language, the dictionary has
remained in demand since publication. Compiled by the Centre for
the Study of Nigerian Languages in Kano as a concise, compact and
readily usable tool, the selection of words has been limited to
those likely to occur in everyday conversation, books, newspapers
and other mass media. It includes a large number of modern words
adopted into Hausa. Main entries give spelling and punctuation,
variant spellings and cross-references, and special notations for
verbs. Grammatical categories, or parts of speech, give verbs and
verbal nouns, nouns, pronouns, adjectives, prepositions and
ideophones. Guidance is also given on definitions and usage.
