"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 Stevenage? 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 Stevenage
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 Stevenage we'll offer whoever can reach you and, if nobody can, a remote interpreter.
Ashanti to English Interpreter in Stevenage
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 Stevenage
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 Stevenage
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.
Ashanti Interpreters Near You in Stevenage
Stevenage still has its own magistrates' court, at the Court House on Danesgate in the town centre, which lists crime, single justice procedure and social security among its work. There is no county or family court in the town: the nearest is Hertford County Court and Family Court at Shire Hall, about nine miles south-east, and the nearest Crown Court is in Luton, about nine miles west on George Street. Health appointments in the area sit with East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust, whose main hospital, the Lister, is about two miles north of the centre, and the town falls under Hertfordshire Constabulary and Stevenage Borough Council.
Stevenage was designated in 1946 as the first of the post-war new towns, and the addresses on appointment letters are easy to mix up as a result: the Old Town, on the old Great North Road with its own High Street, is a separate district from the pedestrianised shopping centre that was built for the new town, and the Lister sits north of both, so it is worth reading the letter twice before an interpreter sets off. The railway station is on the East Coast Main Line, so a relative travelling in for an appointment may arrive by train.
The borough of Stevenage had about 89,500 residents at the 2021 Census. It lies in Hertfordshire, in the East of England, with Hertford about nine miles south-east, Luton about nine miles west, Hatfield about ten miles south, St Albans about twelve miles south-west and Biggleswade about thirteen miles north. We take bookings for all of them, and interpreters attend in person or work by telephone or by video, at any time of day.
