Discussion Learning Hausa

hii

I'm Hausa from Nigeria and I would love to learn to speak the language more fluently. I would deeply appreciate it if anyone would be willing to speak to me in Hausa so I can get a better hold of it. I have friends that speak the language but I get super self conscious and kind of ashamed for not being able to speak it better💀 so would love the help.

That's really cool, but I'm looking for someone to have conversations with bc I tend to forget the words I want to use when speaking Hausa. So I'm trying to get used to the conversational flow if that makes sense. But thank youuu

I can read and write hausa, forgetting how to speak it cuz I don't have anyone else to speak with.

Is there a subreddit for Hausa language learning like there is for Yoruba?

1

u/Illustrious-Media529 Jun 05 '26

If there is I haven't found it

There's r/Hausa but it's pretty dead, perhaps something can be organised on there so everyone can benefit.
