At the 2021 Census, 853 usual residents of the London borough of Enfield aged three or over gave Akan as their main language, the third-highest number of any local authority in England and Wales (source: ONS).

"Ashanti" is the older English spelling of Asante, the people and kingdom whose capital is Kumasi. When a client asks for an Ashanti interpreter, they almost always mean an interpreter in Asante Twi, and that is who we send. It is the form of Akan a Ghanaian from almost anywhere in the south is likely to follow, so an Ashanti interpreter is a sound choice when you are not sure exactly where in Ghana somebody is from.

Want an Ashanti interpreter in Enfield? Phone us on 0800 2425 125 or send the booking to quotes@uklinguisticservices.co.uk; if the person comes from Kumasi or elsewhere in the Ashanti Region, put that in the message.

Local Ashanti Interpreters Around Enfield

The census does not count Ashanti on its own: Asante speakers are included under Akan, alongside Fante and Akuapem speakers. What it does show is that the language is concentrated in London and a few towns around it. Our Asante Twi interpreters are spread the same way, so for Enfield we'll offer whoever can reach you and, if nobody can, a remote interpreter.

Ashanti to English Interpreter in Enfield

Asante society gives a lot of weight to titles. Chiefs and queen mothers are addressed as Nana, and a chief is known by a stool name, sometimes with a number after it, like a monarch. On a UK form that stool name can look like a second identity. An interpreter who knows the custom can explain it before anyone starts to suspect a false name.

Ashanti Interpreter for Business Meetings in Enfield

The Ashanti Region produces cocoa, timber and gold, and some UK firms deal with suppliers and landowners there. Senior Asante businesspeople often speak excellent English, but negotiations with elders or a family that owns land are frequently held in Asante Twi, with greetings and courtesies to the elders before any figures are discussed.

Ashanti Medical Interpreter in Enfield

At a hospital bedside, the Ashanti interpreter often has several relatives to deal with as well as the patient, because decisions about an older person's care are usually shared across the family. It helps the clinician to know who the family regards as the one who speaks for them.

Edmonton County Court and Family Court, at 59 Fore Street about 3 miles south of Enfield Town, handles divorce, children and domestic violence cases along with money claims and housing possession. Benefit and child support appeals are heard closer in, at the Enfield Social Security and Child Support Tribunal on Southbury Road. For criminal cases the nearest Crown Court is at Wood Green, about 4 miles south-west, and the nearest magistrates' court is Highbury Corner on Holloway Road, about 8 miles south. Two general hospitals serve the area under different trusts: Chase Farm Hospital, run by the Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust, is about 2 miles north-west of the town centre, while North Middlesex University Hospital, under its own trust, is about 3 miles south. An appointment letter naming one rather than the other is worth checking before transport is arranged.

Enfield Council is based at the Civic Centre on Silver Street, Enfield Town. Only four Underground stations lie in the borough, all on the Piccadilly line: Arnos Grove, Southgate, Oakwood and Cockfosters. Elsewhere travel relies on London Overground and National Rail, from Enfield Town, Edmonton Green and Enfield Lock among others, so it helps to know which station is nearest before an interpreter sets out. We take bookings around the clock and within seconds can connect you with local interpreters anywhere in the UK, whether the appointment is face to face, by telephone or by video.

Ashanti Interpreter in Enfield: Questions

Is Ashanti the same language as Twi?

Can I get an Ashanti interpreter in Enfield for a family meeting?

Yes. Tell us how many people will attend and whether the meeting is in person, so the interpreter can plan for it.

Are Ashanti interpreters in Enfield available out of hours?

We take bookings 24/7. At night or at weekends a telephone or video Ashanti interpreter is the likeliest option.
