Christaller, J.G.2021-08-102021-08-101933http://ugspace.ug.edu.gh/handle/123456789/36492Tshi, or Twi, is the language prevalent in the Gold Coast countries between the rivers Asini and Tanno on the W. and the Volta on the E., and extends even beyond this river; its southern boundary is the sea- coast, while the upper course of the Volta, and the Kong mountains are its northern limits. That is, roughly, the area of the old Asante empire when it had its greatest extension. Formerly, Guang dialects were spoken throughout the Gold Coast, but in the course of time they were, in most places, superseded by Tshi. – The number of people who speak Tshi may be estimated at about 2 million; and the language is steadily gaining ground.enAsanteDictionaryFanteLanguageTwiOther
