Observation

The question above is on phonology, candidates were expected to identify the place and manner of articulation of the above consonants.  Thus:

(i)      /s/      -        bahanke zuzau (alvedar fricative)
(ii)     /d/      -        nade-harshe hadiyau (retroflex implosive)
(iii)    /m/     -        balebe dan hanci (bilabial nasal)
(iv)    /h/      -        dan makwallato suzau (glottal fricative)
(v)     /k/      -        bahande tsayau (velar stop/plosive)

Candidates performance on this question was very poor.
