Nkonya-English Dictionary

Выходные данные и автор неизвестны. — 190 с.Нконья-английский словарь.Nkonya is a North Guang language in the Guang branch of the Volta-Comoé language group of the (New) Kwa branch of Niger-Congo.
The Guang languages by and large, are spoken in Ghana in an area roughly semi-circular in shape to the south, east and north of the Akans.
In the language itself, the language name is pronounced Nkunyá. A single speaker is an Okunyáyin with the plural being Nkunyáfɔ. The land where they live is also called Nkunyá. They live mainly in about 13 towns in the Volta Region, bordering on Lake Volta, between 7° 5" N and 7° 17" N and between 0° 15" E and 0° 22" E. This is an area along the Kpando-Worawora road from about 11 km north of Kpando up to (but not including) Kwamekrom, 34 km north of Kpando. The official ISO code (ISO 639-3) for Nkonya is nko.
There are about 20,000 people in the Nkonya area, of whom about 11,000 speak Nkonya as their first language. The majority of the non-Nkonya residents speak Ewe. The high proportion of non-Nkonya speakers to Nkonya speakers is a recent phenomenon. There are a large number of Nkonyas living outside Nkonya, perhaps as many as live in the traditional area. Most live in the larger urban areas of Ghana.
