A Dictionary Of The Asante And Fante Language: Called Tshi, Chwee, Twi is a comprehensive dictionary of the Asante and Fante languages, which are spoken in Ghana. The book was originally published in 1881 by Johann Gottlieb Christaller, a German missionary who lived in Ghana for many years and became an expert in the local languages. The dictionary contains over 10,000 entries, including words, phrases, and idioms, as well as grammatical information and examples of usage. It is organized alphabetically, with entries listed in the original Tshi, Chwee, or Twi script, as well as in a transliterated form using the Latin alphabet. In addition to the dictionary itself, the book also includes an introduction to the languages of Ghana, a pronunciation guide, and a brief history of the region. It is an invaluable resource for anyone studying or working with the Asante and Fante languages, as well as for linguists and historians interested in the cultural and linguistic heritage of West Africa.With Grammatical Introduction And Appendices On The Geography Of The Gold Coast And Other Subjects.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
