Firan or FÃÂrÃÂ n (also Ibaas) is a Plateau language closely related to Izere. Most Firan speakers are multilingual in Firan, Hausa, English, Iten and sometimes Berom.
/Cj/ and /Cw/ sequences are permitted but are uncommon
There are 5 tones -- high, mid, low, rising and falling. The rising and falling tones are described as 'aris[ing] from sequences of level tones', but it is not clear what is meant by that, as there are no long vowels in the language.
