    3:41 Fun fact: In Arabic the verb "watered" (like watering a plant) is "rawa" similar to the Hausa noun "ruwa"

      Really Hausa themselves are puzzling. If you know their language you will have a feeling of understanding pharaohs names meaning. Their pre-islamic and colonial identity is really a tabou.

      What the hell are you talking about?
      Nothing is tabou here! What colonisation are you even talking about?
      Hausa's were Muslims more than a millennium now and they choose it.
      Hausa are still speaking Hausa and it is a lingua franca among Muslims Nigerians and Niger.
      Super for them!

    Hausa is like a brother for coptic language in many aspects, Intonation, roots, order of words, consonants or impulsive accent.

    Great video 👏
    It’s good to point out that the Afro-Asiatic languages are a phylum and not a well defined language family. Aspects and components are not shared universally throughout all the languages in this phylum. I think it would be nice if you focused on one branch, like the Semitic languages!

      Thank you! I do have a 2 videos about the Semitic languages.
      Can you please elaborate on the meaning of the term 'phylum'? how would it be different from a language family in its development? I always thought the Afro-Asiatic languages don't have many universally-shared functions because their proto-language was very ancient and they have developed independently for much longer than your usual language-family. Is this what a phylum means? or does it mean they have similarities due to geographic proximity, and thus influence on each other?

    Berber does not belong to the Afroasiatic languages, but rather it is definitely related to the Basque and Songhai languages, and very possibly to the Greek and Iberian languages, because of the similarity found between the ancient Greek language and Basque, and the similarity also found between Basque and Iberian.
