Learn how to speak Fula
The Fula language, also known as
Fulanim is a non-tonal language spoken as various closely
related dialects, in a continuum that stretches across some
20 countries of West and Central Africa. Like other related
languages such as Serer and Wolof, it belongs to the
Atlantic branch of the Niger–Congo language family. It is
spoken as a first language by the Fulɓe (Fula or Fulani
people) and related groups (such as the Tukulor in the
Senegal River Valley) from Senegambia and Guinea to Cameroon
and Sudan. It is also spoken as a second language by various
peoples in the region, such as the Kirdi of Northern
Cameroon and North-Eastern Nigeria.
