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

The courts are in three separate buildings. Swansea Crown Court is at the Law Courts on St Helen's Road, the magistrates' court on Grove Place, and county and family cases, from housing and money claims to adoption and financial remedy, go to the Swansea Civil Justice Centre at Caravella House on Quay Parade. Employment tribunal hearings can be listed at the Civil Justice Centre or at the magistrates' court, although the Wales Employment Tribunal itself has its address in Cardiff. Immigration and asylum appeals mean a longer trip east, to Cardiff Magistrates' Court or to Columbus House in Newport. Port Talbot Justice Centre, about seven miles east, and Llanelli Law Courts, about ten miles north-west, are the next courts out.
Swansea Bay University Health Board runs the city's hospitals, including Morriston Hospital and Singleton Hospital, about two miles west of the centre, while the board's minor injury unit is at Neath Port Talbot Hospital. Confirm the hospital, not just the health board, before booking. Swansea University is split between two campuses: Singleton Park, west of the city centre, and the Bay Campus, opened in 2015 beside Jersey Marine Beach to the east, which lies across the boundary in Neath Port Talbot.
The 2021 Census put the population of Swansea at about 238,500, 0.2% lower than in 2011, one of seven local authorities in Wales to shrink (ONS). South Wales Police covers the city. The same booking line also covers Neath, about seven miles north-east, Llanelli and Ammanford to the north-west and north, Bridgend about seventeen miles south-east, and Kidwelly and Carmarthen further north-west. Bookings are taken 24/7, for face-to-face, telephone or video interpreting.
