Danagla
The Danagla (
Andaandi Language, its threatened by complete replacement by Arabic, although there is a lot of initiatives to revive it among the young generations[5] It is still spoken by a sizeable minority of the population, especially among the elders[6]
alongside the Sudanese Arabic dialect.
Genetics
According to Y-DNA analysis by Hassan et al (2008), around 44% of Nubians and Danaglas generally in Sudan carry the
E1b1b clade (23%). Both paternal lineages are also common among local Afroasiatic-speaking populations.[7]
Thus it's observed that approximately 83% of their Nubian samples carried various subclades of the Africa-centered macrohaplogroup L. Of these mtDNA lineages, the most frequently borne clade was L3 (30.8%), followed by the L0a (20.6%), L2 (10.3%), L1 (6.9%), L4 (6.9%) and L5 (6.9%) haplogroups. The remaining 17% of Nubians belonged to sublineages of the Eurasian macrohaplogroups M (3.4% M/D, 3.4% M1) and N (3.4% N1a, 3.4% preHV1, 3.4% R/U6a1). These results can be used as rough estimates of genetics most Nubians hold.[citation needed]
