dc.description.abstractAfrican languages are on the verge of extinction because they are given less primacy as the foreign languages, and have not been standardized by developing their orthographies and phonemic systems. The need to arrest this drift is what has led to the emergence of this study. Given the fact that English is a major global language, comparing it with the Gwandara language enables the researchers to appreciate some striking similarities and, or differences capable of elevating the Gwandara language to a higher level. It is hoped that the reader will find this descriptive research work useful for its contribution to the development of one of the Nigeria’s local languages to a standard levelen_US
