Songhoyboro Ciine or Songhay Ciiné (.
Due to the high mutual intelligibility with the prestige dialect of Zarma in Niamey, it is common for Songhoyboro Ciine speakers to use the words "Zarma" and "Songhay" interchangeably when referring to their language.[5][6][7][8] Songhoyboro Ciine is not, however, intelligible with Koyraboro Senni Songhai dialect of Gao in Mali.[9] Some use the Peulh word "kado" (meaning; "stranger")[10] to address this dialect although many of the dialect speakers consider it pejorative.[11]
