In the 20th and 21st centuries, it has become more commonly published in print and online. There are a few traditional dialects, differing mostly due to tonality. The language was commonly written with a variant of the Arabic script known as ajami but is more often written with the Latin alphabet known as boko. ==Classification== (詳細はWest Chadic languages subgroup of the Chadic languages group, which in turn is part of the Afroasiatic language family.
