With a structure in place, it seemed obvious to start adding new languages more quickly. Right next door was Ewe (Evegbe), another major language of Ghana and the westernmost Gbe variant. We added Gbe support in December 2012.
The Gbe languages form a cluster of about twenty related languages stretching across the area between eastern Ghana and western Nigeria. The total number of speakers of Gbe languages is between four and eight million. The most widely spoken Gbe language is Ewe (3 million speakers in Ghana and Togo, followed by Fon (1.7 million, mainly in Benin). The Gbe languages belong to the Kwa branch of the Niger-Congo languages, and break up into five major dialect clusters: Ewe, Fon, Aja, Gen, and Phla-PherĂ¡.
Writing Convention
kasahorow uses Modern Gbe. Modern Gbe is a simpler spelling system for the Gbe language. All words in Modern Gbe use just the basic Gbe alphabet.
