ABSTRACT
Two languages belonging to the Mande group are spoken in Ghana: Ligbi and Bisa. A considerable proportion of the speakers of both are in adjoining territories of neighbouring countries. In Ghana, there is little if any contact between the two. Ligbi is spoken in northwestern Brong-Ahafo, and also in the Bondoukou area of the Ivory Coast, while Bisa is spoken in the far northeast of Ghana and also in Burkina Faso. In Ghana neither language occupies a discrete area of its own but is spoken by settled communities interspersed among those of another language.
