Nigerian-American student studying linguistics & Yoruba, interested in historical linguistics and phonology! I usually work on Niger-Congo languages Hausa. I mostly will be on the Yoruba, Hausa, and Baatonum pages, especially on the etymology section of these pages. I'm the primary contributor of the Proto-Yoruboid entries and hope to expand the etymological languages of Niger-Congo here on Wiktionary
