Hassaniya

Hassaniya is a language that people in parts of North Africa speak. It’s especially common in a country called Mauritania.

Just like how you have your own language and can use words to talk to your friends and family, people who speak Hassaniya can use it to talk to their friends and family too. Hassaniya is made up of different sounds and words that make up different sentences and phrases.

Sometimes when people speak Hassaniya, they might say something in a way that sounds different than what you’re used to hearing. That’s because they have their own way of using words and sounds to say what they want to say.

Overall, Hassaniya is just another way that people can communicate with each other and share their thoughts and feelings using a special language that is specific to their culture.
