KNOW GHANA BETTER WITH HUNIAH

  The people of Bowire consisted of seemingly two distinct tribes; the Asebu whom we had learnt about from the Ahanta story and the Bunyukutu-Kpaletor who are the aboriginals. The Asebu migrated from Moree in the Central Region. The Kpaletor people had their own language that they speak. They came to meet the Ayade or Akposso people hence with time they established close linguistic relationship. The name of their land then was Kokpaase-Ofo. They spoke the Tuwuli or the Tora language. According to one Mensah Evelyn, the people of Asebu used to live at present day Moree. They were then under two leaders, Nana Amanfi I, the Asebu leader and Nana Kwagya who founded Moree. They were Akans who spoke the Akan language. It is also said according to Fante and Bowire sides of the story that the Asebu people consisted of three clans; Alata, Nkum and Benti.

NOUNS IN THE GA LANGUAGE (GB ƐIWIEMƆI YƐ GA MLI  ) In Latin, "noun" simply means "a name." They refer to names of people, animals, places or things. They can be concrete or abstract.

In every language, verbs are very crucial for making good sentences. There is no language which has no usage of verbs in its grammar. The same applies to the Ga language. In the Ga language, we have two types of verbs. Those are the verbs with the "mɔ suffixes" and likewise those without the "mɔ suffixes." That aside, we have verbs that are very simple in nature and those that are complex. The complexity of verbs in the Ghana language is just like it is in German. Let us take German for example we have the separable affixes, which are inflected in sentence formations example   ich kaufe Brot ein . The verb is einkaufen  but in the sentence formartion,  "kaufe"  came before  "ein." The same applies to the Dutch language. For example  I am going out of the home ,  which translates as   Ik ga het huis uit .   The verb is  uitgaan  which has been inflected in the sentence formation. This same grammatical rule also ap...
