Thank you! My boyfriend is from Ghana and speaks Twi almost exclusively with his family. They are so wonderful and accepting of me and I want to learn the language out of respect and admiration. This was helpful and I will likely watch it again and again until I can remember it all!
Yes my husband is Ghanaian and he is the kindest sweetest man I ever met. His family that knows about me excepts me but he hasn't told his grandmother because she is very old and did not want him to marry an obruni, but I know she would be very nice to me. He just doesn't want to give her a heart attack lol.
I used to work with two guys from Ghana, and I learned a lot of this from them. They became two of my good friends, and although I haven’t seen them in years, I always think about them and hope they’re doing well.
I'm a french canadian and I plan on visiting africa eventually, this video is my first forray into Twi and I find it fascinating! Thank you, the way you explain the deeper meaning behind the expressions really helps with understanding! :)
Agoo & Akwaaba, I am recently contracting in Ghana and wanted to respect the country and wonderful people here by learning Twi and YOU are the perfect teacher for what I am trying to learn. Medaase!! I have absolutely subscribed and now I have two large white-boards full of notes. Madaase!!!
Hi I am writing from Côte d'ivoire, and I am a BAOULÉ people originally from the Akan tribe, and our mother language is Twi which has given birth to various languages (baoulé, agni, abron, aboure etc.) Most of what you have taught are almost similar to my language. I would love to speak twi...

Thank you so much for making this; when I was about 6 or 7, my grandma tried teaching me twi, but it’s been years since i’ve been able to see her, and i’ve lost pretty much everything that I was taught through the years :,O I’m hoping I can slowly gain it back for the next time I get to see her, I miss having that connection between us. I feel like i’ve lost so much valuable information about Ghana. I’m still on the basics but seeing creators like you help teach the language is so lovely to see, I don’t know many other resources that offer twi. I’ll be binge watching n adding your videos to my playlist ASAPP !!! I appreciate you taking the time to do this more than you know ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much oo my dear🙏🏿🇬🇭. I was born in Ghana but grew up in an Liberian 🇱🇷 household.i want to try and speak the language of my mama more often sense she struggles with English sometime and she speak Twi and Bassa🙌🏿
Thank you so much for this video! I am 18 now and have never learned my father’s family’s language before. I want to surprise him the next time I see him.
I just came across this Twi tutorial which I think is very good for a beginner like me from Barbados. Please create more such content. You are very clear and explain the material quite well.
Hi Adwoales, my name is Kurt. I am from Barbados, we are descendants of Ghana 🇬🇭. I have many Ghanaian friends here and I want to surprise them by learning the language. They taught me some already but I just love languages, so I will do some learning on my own. I have already subscribed to you baby girl 😊
I can only literally memorize like 5 things at a time. They should make videos with just 5 words like a short. And then you repeat those 5 words like the whole day 35 words a week
I think you are a good teacher i can understand that enghlish has a big influence on twi but i hope you don´t forget your numbers in twi ...greetings from Germany and a lot of fun in teaching twi medaase for teaching...José
This is great! I've been to Ghana 3 times but only understand certain words .I've been getting by because the official language is English but the locals speak their local language when the talk to each other. Also it keeps you from being scammed when you understand the language.
Thank you for these wonderful videos. I have just met someone from Ghana, and am excited to surprise him by learning some Twi. You are an excellent teacher. Madaase!
First video I watched so I wasn't going to subscribe until I had chance to view the content... 14 minutes later... I subscribed.😃 Me da w'ase bebree!!! I admire how you patiently describe & break down each word of each phrase. This is a sign of a GREAT Instructor. Asante Sana (Thank you very much -- Kiswahili)
My man is Ghanaian his mom has been teaching me your page has also helped me soooo much I love surprising him with new words thank you your page is gold!
Medaase pa! I've been to Ghana in 2019 and I was starting to learn some phrases in Twi back then, but I wasn't able to have a full conversation yet. So no I will try to improve my language skills
There are just some little differences ( intonation, and how the word sounds at the end ) but it is basically the same language as baoule and Agni language Nice video from Ivory Coast 🇨🇮
I really enjoyed this video. I am trying to become fluent in twi. I plan on going to Ghana next year and I want to really speak and understand the language. Medaase for this teaching. Please do more.
Thank you for your Twi lessons. I do know how to Speak Twi but, mostly I don’t speak to Americans people because, i don’t feel comfortable speaking to them at all. But you are excellent teacher.
Holy cow you guys are humble. I was asking myself like „bruh there GOTTA be a way to say thank you without laying before someone“ and then u hit me with bebree 😂😂
I'm a 12 year old kid who has been around the twi language all my life when my uncle's and aunties from church say something I mostly mumble it of but I hope this helps me.

I’m from Sierra Leone west Africa🇸🇱 but I want to learn how to speak Ghana language, the language is so interesting Thank U so much for the video I’m learning a lot Much love from Australia🇦🇺🇸🇱🇦🇺😊❤️🫶🏾
Good Evening, dear friend Miss Leena thank you so much for your lessons, I am in my way to Ghana and i eduated with you well. I am very apprcaite to talk with my friends in thier Ghana local Langauge ... gain i am very appreciate to you .
Woow! Well done. This is very impressive. Pls can I humbly make this correction. In Akan the word bebree* is used for countable nouns*. For instance, nkwadaa bebree (many children). Or ntoosi bebree (many tomatoes). On the other hand, pii* or paa* is used for uncountable or abstract nouns depending on the context. Eg Medaase pii (Thanks a lot) or nsuo pii (a lot of water). Just as many is used for countable nouns and a lot is used for uncountable nouns in English. However, some people use them interchangeably.
Do you have Twi speaking friends? Sites like interpals makes it easy to find people anywhere if you don't. Learning a language is so much easier when you have someone to speak it with.
It's very interesting understanding the meaning behind the Twi words. It's the best way to remember and speak the language. Please add writings to your video, the visuals or pictorials also be helpful. I shared your videos with my kids, as I am encouraging them to connect with their roots.
I am trying to learn how to communicate with my co-workers in twi. They speak English, but I want to understand what they are talking about so I can "join-in" is the conversation is a topic I know about.
Your words are different to the other 3 TH-camrs who are teaching Twi but I think you explained it at the beginning by saying there’s different styles. I learnt Thank you very much is ‘Medaase Paa’. I don’t want to confuse myself too much.
At Work they told me there are the Akan, Ashante.... two or three different aahh🤔 Akan or Ashante(?). Sorry i forgot. It is Like in Germany: in München munich they speak a very different "German" than the people in Hamburg. And they use and write different words for the Same things, in some cases. And tham there is "Hochdeutsch" "Hoch"means high(no drugs)
@@beastofchaospureanarchie Akan is the ethnic group. But ethnic group has different languages. There is Twi which is spoken by the Ashanti and other tribes and also widely spoken in every part of Ghana because it is easy to learn and understand. There is fante too and other Akan groups
Wow, Twi is very hard to Remember and to Pronounce for me. My husband is from Ghana, and I'm trying to learn much from him as well. Jesus Christ, but you're doing a Good Job with helping me on this. I guess once my husband arrives here with me it will be Better. If he Speaks Twi around me All the time, then I'll learn Faster.
