Note 25 — Chapter III

The Ffon, or Dahoman, a dialect of the great Yoruba family, has, like the Egba, or Abeokutan language, a G and a Gb, the latter at first inaudible to our ears, and difficult to articulate without long practice. On the other hand, it has a P (e.g., in Po-su), as well as a Kp (for instance, kpakpa, a duck), whereas the Egba possesses only the latter.
