Editing Hausa language (section)

===Pronouns===
Hausa marks tense differences by different sets of subject pronouns, sometimes with the pronoun combined with some additional particle. For this reason, a subject pronoun must accompany every verb in Hausa, regardless of whether the subject is known from previous context or is expressed by a noun subject.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://aflang.humanities.ucla.edu/language-materials/chadic-languages/hausa/hausa-online-grammar/verb-tense/ |title=Hausa Verb Tense – African Languages at UCLA |access-date=2021-05-07 |archive-date=2020-11-11 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201111220446/http://aflang.humanities.ucla.edu/language-materials/chadic-languages/hausa/hausa-online-grammar/verb-tense/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> Thus Hausa is a [[non pro-drop language]].
