Move to Dazaga language or not?

edit

It looks like either Chadic or Nigerian are having communities that call their own mother tongue as Daza, results "Daza language" too ambiguous for me to understand. Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 01:55, 28 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Spoken in Sudan?

edit

For almost ten years, this page contains an unsourced claim that Dazaga is spoken in Sudan with language data purportedly representing the Omdurman dialect. I haven't found any independent source in support of this. A web search only leads to WP mirrors and WP:CIRCULAR sources citing Wikipedia. All independent sources only mention Chad and Niger for the speech area of Dazaga.

Pinging @Cookiemonster1618: Maybe you can help out here with your first-hand knowledge of the language situation in Sudan. Before I remove this information as unsourced, do you think it is in any way valid? If yes, it will be worth digging deeper to find appropriate sources (and adding {{citation needed}}-tags in the meantime). If you have never heard about it, let's just remove it.

I am aware that there are Tebu in Sudan who belong to the Teda branch but Dazaga is primarily spoken by Tebu in Chad and by a smaller number in Niger. There may be Dazaga speakers in Sudan but I don't have any knowledge on the total number of Dazaga speakers in Sudan. I would not remove it until I find the source.

So I did some research and according to Minority Rights website entry for Niger it says that Daza live in Niger and Chad. There are no known Daza speakers in Sudan. That figure of 3,000 Daza speakers in Sudan is not cited and no outside sources mention any Daza speakers in Sudan. Cookiemonster1618 (talk) 22:22, 3 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Peer Review #2

Hello authors!

Love the article and I really feel like it is coming along nicely!

I have only a few minor things to talk about in terms of vocabulary and basic comprehension for people who might not have the linguistic comprehension.

When you talk about the Azza, it seems to be information that was kind of "fit in" somewhere inconspicuous but it doesn't really 'flow' with any of the surrounding paragraphs.

The term 'adjectavilizer' is used and not linked to a definition. I think you should either link the definition and/or define it yourself in the same sentence!

Good job overall! LightningBug2003 (talk) 06:57, 29 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
