Wasa, also known as Wassa and Wasaw, is the common language of the Wasa people and a dialect of the Akan dialect continuum. Wasa is partially intelligible with the three principal Akan dialects of Fante, Asante, and Akuapem, the latter two collectively known as Twi, although it is most similar to the Abron dialect. It is spoken by 273,000 in southwestern Ghana, mainly in the Wasa Amenfi West and Wasa Amenfi East districts. Its dialects include Amenfi and Fianse.
