Title: Hausa Literature
Post by: Muhammad on February 23, 2003, 01:37:22 AM
Assalamu alaika Admin

I am sure I have asked this question before. Amma na manta ansar da kabani. Ina so ne admin in shaida maka, the more i(and many) read hausa literature the more I(we) feel at home in the harsh environment i(we) call home.
ina da deficiency wurin rubutu cikin harshen hausa saboda dalilai wanda basai na fade su ba a wannan filin tattaw nawa.
Amma idan za ku iya admin, lalle i, and many i dare say, will appreciate it if mujallar Bidiyo ko ta fim will be update a least quaterly.
If this is not possible, to admin sai ayi kokari wurin samana yan kana nan hausa stories domin mu dinga dawowa kullun da kullun.
Dole ne mu yabi gudum mawar da kuke and adding hausa literature will make us even more appreciative.
Bissalam

PS: this post is not directed solely to the admin. If you as a viewer has found a hausa resource page, then pls dont hesitate to share it with us.

Deficiency...................errrrr thatz why I saw that hausa u wrote was pur-fectly spotted out....mhmm mayb it was ma eyes. 2 b honest I dont really get it. Wat harsh environment? Wat is Mujalla by d side ways? Wat sort of hausa stories? Fiction, kids fairy tale or whut?

On d other hand, yeah! lets have d hausa literature...even though we speak & understand. Its worth learnin or shu'I say pickin out new words....ok sure.....admin bring them on!!!

Thanks to all who posted on this issue. I am one of the admins of the board, and we are always looking for ways to enhance the board. We are planning a major overhaul of the site in June/July insha Allah, and we will have more sections for people to write short stories in Hausa, poems, riddles and jokes and so on.

In the meantime, I also run about three Yahoo! groups dealing with Hausa culture. These are:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/littattafan_Hausa_na_zamani/
which focuses attention on novellas, novels, short stories, etc.

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/hausadahausawa/
a focus group on Hausa culture, including short stories (all in Hausa)

and

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/finafinan_hausa/
which is on Hausa home videos
