This is NOT derived from Hausa! The bird iiwi is from Hawaii, and the name originates from Hawaiian language. It certainly does not exist in West Africa, the home of the Hausa. Seems someone used the “ha” Hausa code instead of the “haw” Hawaiian code. I have corrected it. Ptilinopus (talk) 10:15, 8 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
