Summary: "A Hausa Botanical Vocabulary" by J. M. Dalziel is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work serves as a glossary and reference guide to the botanical terminology used in the Hausa language, encompassing an extensive list of local plants, their uses, and cultural significance. It is particularly useful for ethnobotanists, linguists, and anyone interested in the plant life and terminology of the Hausa-speaking regions of West Africa. At the start of the vocabulary, the text begins with an alphabetical listing of various Hausa plant names along with their scientific classifications, descriptions, and contextual uses. Each entry provides not only the local Hausa name but also synonyms, common applications, and related dialect variations. This structured format presents a comprehensive exploration of the rich flora in the Hausa-speaking regions, highlighting the importance of these plants in local agriculture, medicine, and daily life.
