"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 St Andrews? 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 St Andrews
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 St Andrews we'll offer whoever can reach you and, if nobody can, a remote interpreter.
Ashanti to English Interpreter in St Andrews
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 St Andrews
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 St Andrews
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.

NHS Fife runs St Andrews Community Hospital in the town. The board's next nearest sites are in or around Cupar: the Adamson Hospital and the Weston Day Hospital, about 9 miles west, and Stratheden Hospital, about 10 miles west. An appointment letter can name any of these, and they are a fair distance apart by road, so check which one is meant before booking. Fife Council, which sits in Glenrothes, is the local authority, and Police Scotland is the force for the area. Interpreters are available around the clock, working face to face, by telephone or over video.
There is no sheriff court in St Andrews. The nearest is Dundee Sheriff Court and Justice of the Peace Court, about 11 miles north-west across the Tay, while Kirkcaldy and Forfar are each about 21 miles away, to the south-west and north. The University of St Andrews, founded between 1410 and 1413, brings students and visiting academics to the town, and bookings for them, a tenancy issue, a report to the police, a clinic visit, are best planned with term dates in mind.
The town lost its own railway in 1969, when the branch to Leuchars on the Edinburgh to Aberdeen line closed, so visitors arriving by train continue from Leuchars by bus or road. Cupar lies about 8 miles west, Dundee about 11 miles north-west and Carnoustie about 12 miles north, with Arbroath about 17 miles north-east and Glenrothes about 18 miles south-west.
