In today’s lesson, we learn how to ask for someone’s tribe or nationality in Twi, and how to respond by stating your own. While asking “Where are you from?” usually gets a response about someone’s hometown or country (and is covered in a separate lesson), today’s focus is on questions like “What is your nationality?” or “What tribe are you from?” By the end of this lesson, you’ll be able to both ask and answer these questions with ease in Twi.
