COMENTÁRIOS SOBRE O CONTEXTO DO IDIOMA: "The Seni people have essentially switched to becoming Hausa speaking and are broadly Muslim. They now call themselves the Shenawa and their language Shenanci. The loss of the

LUGARES: "Sheni is spoken at 8°45'E, 10°25'N; Sheni is a few miles south of Rahama Station on Jos-Zaria railway."
