Languages and Culture
The Ghanaian Americans speak Akan and Ga–Dangme, often also speaking English. The Ghanaians have an easier time adapting to life in the United States than other immigrants because their homeland of Ghana has the English language as the official language and is spoken by the majority of Ghana's population. Currently, the majority of Ghanaian Americans are Christian Americans (mostly Protestant).

Famous quotes containing the words languages and/or culture:
“It is time for dead languages to be quiet.”
—Natalie Clifford Barney (1876–1972)
“The first time many women hold their tiny babies, they are apt to feel as clumsy and incompetent as any man. The difference is that our culture tells them they’re not supposed to feel that way. Our culture assumes that they will quickly learn how to be a mother, and that assumption rubs off on most women—so they learn.”
—Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)
