Abstract
The major goals of this study are to examine how the syllable structures of the English and Hausa languages differ and what those implications are for teaching and learning. The study's goals are to identify points where the fundamental syllable structures of English and Hausa diverge, to identify potential areas of difficulty for Hausa English speakers, and to provide guidance on how to help Hausa ESL students get through these challenges. For this, 40 respondents were chosen at random from four secondary schools in Kaura Namoda, Zamfara State, and were subjected to an oral interview exam. The chapter students were required to read placed a strong emphasis on how the auditory system interprets sounds in relation to the English syllable structure. This was recorded digitally. The passage's start, medial, and terminal consonant clusters of two to four were among the ten (10) tasks (words) selected for observation. The strong hypothesis theory was applied to the investigation's aims. The internalization of the English syllable pattern by Hausa secondary school pupils was shown to be a substantial learning barrier when consonant clusters, whether initial, medial, or final, were present. These were made evident by the results from the four schools.
