Why name it Asante Twi?.Akuapim Twi is all what we know in Ghana as the first and superior of all the Twi in Ghana.These Ashanti's are nothing but a laughing stock who always want to take things not by merit but by force
Haha yaanom are bleeding, since when did Akuapim twi become superior than Asante twi? What is the population of Akuapims? Even in Eastern region there are more Ashantis (Koforidua, Kwahu etc) than Akaupims
It is nothing new. The University of Cologne in Germany teaches the Ewe language, the same way the University of Indiana in Bloomington, USA does. Just Google it and you will know.
No one cares about ewe even here in Ghana the ewes speak Asante twi more than their native language
Maybe you do not care. Others do.
DO WE EAT LANGUAGE,? KWASIA ANALYSIS,
Be intellectually honest. You know UI also teaches Akan, just as Yale and UF do. Instead of reminding ourselves that we have to take pride in our languages, some of you are indulging in ethnicity.
oh boy ? all that you said is true but be respectful. Remember it was Akwapim man of knowledge who created the Asante Kingdom and brought down the Golding stool from heaving a feat no Asante king can deny.
Yakubu you can go to hell to develop your hypertension there. Go to hell with your filthy hatred for Akan people.
It will be called Yakubu Zakari Twi, instead of Asahanti Twi. I hope that that will help you sleep well. Needless enviness and tribalism
You are so dumb and very primitive with your useless bitterness.The Asante will remain superior over your unknown tribe.
Yakubu Zakari, is a true member of The Bleeding & Hateful Yaanom. He is among those fools among us who prefer us, Africans, speak the colonial master`s tongue than our own simply because The Asantes are too loud.

ASHANTIS ARE LIKE ISRAELIS OR AMERICANS. THE HANDS OF GOD ARE OVER THEM, NO WEAPON LUNCH AGAINST WILL SUCCEED. GHANA BLESS ISRAEL, AMERICAN, ASHANTI AS A TRIBE AND GHANA AS A WHOLE
God bless you sir.
You’re right.
Always confusing please correct me if I am wrong: Akan is a group of tribes, not a language. Twi is a language and Asante, aquapim and fante are dialects if Twi.
You’ve put it perfectly. The people are Akan and they speak various twi dialects- Akuapem Twi, Fanti Twi, Asante Twi. Bono, etc.
Bono Twi???? Hahaha. I understand your pain but you just have to accept that Asante is the biggest and most recognized tribe in Ghana and we are not even arguing about that.
That's good
HOW WILL THAT BRING FOOD TO THE TABLE, MY PEOPLE ARE ALL SENSELESS, KWASIAFOUR, DO WE EAT TWI? LETS THINK
Must you always display your ignorance?
Here we misled others again. Teaching Akan and Asante Twi.? Ghana needs to choose the equivalent of High German to speed up the development of Akan. We cannot development all the various Akan dialects. Let's choose Akwapim Tw ...

If you’ve studied the Twi language, you’d be aware of Asante Twi and Akuapem Twi.
Books, bibles, etc, are written or translated into Asante or Akuapem Twi.
There’s no language called Asante Twi.
It’s AKAN TWI with various dialects or accent.
Asantefour mmoa
Did you know that EWE has been taught in Germany since the 1950s?
Why anything concerning Ashantis become problem for non Akans but when it's come to investmen they will choose Ashanti region instead of their hometown because they fear their own people. It's a fact most of the radio statio ...

Great and when they finish learning it, then they should migrate to Ghana and live here.
Ghana should adopt this language as official, hatred will never move us forward
Ghanaians:
Is it not long overdue for us to get a Ghanaian language as a lingua franca in addition to English?
There is no gainsaying the fact that over 60% of Ghanaians speak and understand some Asante Twi. Let us put all ...

Fante language is also widely spoken in Ghana, Cote d'Ivoire, Angola, Liberia and so on. When the British and other Europeans came to Ghana, they first familiarise themselves with Fante culture before socializing better with ...

People are still fighting with the great kingdom, meanwhile poverty is still destroying them, the fact is Asante Twi is leading all the way until the next coming of God. Koose
It's funny how people find so much pride in some of these things while they seat quietly and watch politicians play aviator with their future.
Kudos to them,God bless my mother tongue.
