Dagbamba language

• Naa Gbewaa bihi ata maa zaa puuni, Nanumba yɛtɔɣa nyɛla din miri Dagbani n-gari dimbalanim maa zaa. Among these three sons of Chief Gbewaa, the language of the Nanumba is the one which is closer to Dagbani than both those others. [DB.171]
• Tinim gba niya ni nyɛ shɛli buku ŋɔ sabbu ni nyɛla ni ti niŋ baŋsim maa bayaana n-ti ti niriba bɛn mi Dagbani kariŋ. The reason we have taken the trouble to write this book is so that we make information freely available to people who know how to read Dagbani. [DB Iodine 1.006]
