That's how they are all pronounced in hausa.

Rikodin is recording
Sikanin is scanning and so on, they are advertising in hausa language

Dont know what your language is but how do your people pronounce scanning?

If not for you, I'd be trying to figure out the meaning of those words till God knows when.
Damn, I can't believe this. Why didn't they write in Hausa instead?

oh, pls... call a spade a spade. Its an error, if the writer and his supposed audience knew d correct spelling, he wouldn't have written it like that.

I guess that is how they submit their exam sheets too, after some sikani and potocafi.

I'm pretty sure Ajami is written in the arabic script, what are you on about?

Is that arabic text?

I won't be surprised if that's a school community
Re: Another Blunder Spotted In The North (pics) by Academicwizman(m): 5:52am On Nov 08, 2019
Do you know that in Yoruba language,

Bread is spelt; Buredi
Rice = Iresi
Photocopy = Fotokopi

So, what's the fuse about those spellings? They are borrowed words from English language. I am sure that you will get similar spellings from other languages too (Igbo inclusive).

Lol
Re: Another Blunder Spotted In The North (pics) by Midas01: 6:13am On Nov 08, 2019
There's no proof it happened in the north. It could be some other African country.
Re: Another Blunder Spotted In The North (pics) by nstr: 6:17am On Nov 08, 2019
Hausa English..Smh

Re: Another Blunder Spotted In The North (pics) by nstr: 6:20am On Nov 08, 2019
And so!!! Becuz its like that in Yoruba doesn't mean it should be used in every shops and sales stands

Just accept that whoever wrote those made a very Big blunder and isnt targeting any hausa abeg

Or can you also write those words in an exam or test like that if you are in school

That J111333 is an irredeemable bigot. He hates the North and he will not see reasons in your explanation.




Borrowed words e.g Tabulu (Table) abound in Igbo language.

How many text did you see written as Yoruba language
Re: Another Blunder Spotted In The North (pics) by oyatz(m): 6:52am On Nov 08, 2019
Ajami is written in both Latin and Arabic scripts.


The advert is Hausa written with English alphabet.
There are no local words for Photocopy, scanning, recording and printing.






Many world's in English were also borrowed and corrupted from Greek, Arabic,Latin and French e.g Agriculture, Hospital, Algebra, Admiral, Mutton, Avenue etc

Bros calm down.

The shop owner is not writing any exam and is not interested in any academic correctness. He is an average Nigerian hustler looking for his daily bread.

He simply wanted to pass a message to his customers in a language they can understand.

Look at the way you too wrote 'Becuz' instead of 'Because'...is that how you will write it in an exam?

There are similar adverts written in local languages in your State too but because of the background hatred you have for the North, you are quick to come online telling the whole world the advert wasn't written in Queen's English.


You could as well demanded that our local Languages should not be spoken or written in public so as not to offend you.
