Mmuock language

Mmuock, also called Mmock in some regions, is the language of the Mmuock (Mmock) people of western Cameroon. A writing system is based on the Latin script.

Mmuock is a tonal language: the phrase a fa lèlā can mean at least four different things depending on the tone on the second a:

  • a fǎ lèlā. she has been wrong to cry
  • a fâ lèlā. she will be wrong to cry
  • a fȧ lèlā. she [when she wants, or has, to] makes the mistake of crying
  • a fă lèlā. she [as is in her nature] makes the mistake of crying.
