dc.description.abstract | A proverb is an important aspect of orature that serves as an instrument of transmitting the cultural norms and values of a society from generation to generation. Ful~e are among the people who are blessed with proverbs. They attach much importance to proverbs and use them most often in their conversations to instruct, admonish or show mastery of the language. This instruction and warning are used in teaching the younger ones the etiquettes of life as contained in their code of conduct called pulaaku. The data was collected by random sampling of Mbororo‟en, Ful~e Na‟i and Ful~e Saare who live within the area where the central northern Nigeria and the Adamawa dialects of Fulfulde are spoken and was analyzed using a theory called Content Analysis. The research identifies proverbs that relate to the tenets of pulaaku: semteende (shyness), munyal (patience), goongaaku (honesty), ngorgu (courage), en]am (compassion), ne]]aaku (dignity), hakkiilo (caution), ndimu (purity) and marugo na‟i (cattle possession) | en_US |
