Comanda's Twi Guide

By: Amanda Ansah

Narrated by: Amanda Ansah

A learning tool designed to equip listeners with phrases and words in Twi (Asante Akan) for the purpose of basic to intermediate conversation. Includes a range of various topics, each with words and phrases provided with approximate spellings and actual phonetic pronunciations in order to help the listener to learn how to speak basic Twi with friends or family.

A great tool to use along with Ghanaian media such as films, TV, and music in order to support learning. All the words and phrases provided are from Comanda's personal knowledge of the language based on what she learnt growing up, and is by no means a full scope of the whole Asante Akan dialect. It is comprised, however, of many popular Twi words and phrases that are heard on a day to day basis in Asante Akan households and has been put together in various topics in order to assist Ghanaian non-Twi speakers and non-Ghanaians alike in becoming familiar and confident in reading and speaking Twi.

Way too fast.

Impossible to learn a new language at this pace. I haven’t learned a single thing yet

Wonderful, Quick and Functional.

This guide has lots of helpful, conversational phrases. It is a great buy! It would have been nice to have the phrases said 1 time at converational speed, 1 time slow/ broken down word by word and then, then once again at conversational speed. Because I've been studying Twi I could follow and knew a decent amount of other words I could piece the individual parts together but if I were to come in blind, it would have been more difficult. I love the tips on pronunciation and less formal versions of phrases given.
