Not clear on doubling or not of the "c." Blench from fieldwork has acaari; Mukoshy has accaari. Taylor's rendition is ambiguous on this point - achari - but also acha for the verb to leave or let, which is unambiguously acca (accude, accugol) in current Fula orthographies. This is a loan from the Hausa word for fonio - acca - but would that doubled consonant carry over to Fula?--A12n (talk) 03:17, 22 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
