Item description from seller

Language: English. About The Book: Charles?Henry?Robinson’s *Dictionary of the Hausa Language* is a foundational two?volume Hausa reference. Volume?1 (Hausa–English) offers a comprehensive lexical compendium—expanded and revised in the fourth edition—to translate and interpret Hausa vocabulary for English readers. Volume?2 (English–Hausa) reverses the direction, facilitating colloquial Hausa expression for English speakers aiming to learn or use the language conversationally. Compiled after Robinson’s field experience in northern Nigeria (1894–95), the dictionary significantly advanced Western understanding of Hausa linguistics despite critiques of his limited immersion. About The Author: Charles H. Robinson (1861–1925) was a British missionary, linguist, and scholar deeply engaged with Hausa language and culture. His key works include *Dictionary of the Hausa Language* (Vol. 1 & 2), *Specimens of Hausa Literature*, and *Magana Hausa*, which preserved and analyzed traditional Hausa stories and proverbs. Robinson also authored influential texts like *History of Christian Missions* and *The Interpretation of the Character of Christ to Non-Christian Races*, advocating for cross-cultural religious understanding. His travelogue *Hausaland* and historical study *Nigeria: Our Latest Protectorate* further document colonial and missionary activities in West Africa during British expansion.
