Miship language

Miship(Chip) is an Afro-Asiatic language spoken in Plateau State, Nigeria. Doka is a dialect. The chip people are found in Pankshin local government. The traditional occupation of Chip people is farming. The people worship Na'an. Oral tradition states that they migrated from Kanem-Bornu to their present homeland with other tribes, Ngas, Mupun, Mwaghavul. Most chip names are unisex so in order to differentiate a boy from a girl the prefix Na is added to the girl's name and Da is added to the boy's. For example a boy and a girl both sharing Nandi, the boy would be Danan and the girl Nanan.
