Lower Nossob language


Lower Nossob an extinct Khoisan language once spoken along the Nossob River on the border of South Africa and Botswana, near Namibia. It was closely related to Taa.
There are two attested dialects: ǀʼAuni, recorded by Dorothea Bleek, and ǀHaasi, recorded by Robert Story. ǀʼAuni is the word the former use for themselves; ǀʼAuo is what they call their language. ǀauni, ǁauni, Auni are misspellings. Other renderings of the name ǀHaasi are Kʼuǀha꞉si, Kiǀhasi, and Kiǀhazi.
