Gã, also spelled Ga or Gan, is a Kwa language, part of the Niger–Congo family, spoken in Ghana, mainly in and around the capital Accra, by the Gã people. It is very closely related to Dangme, and together they form the Gã–Dangme branch. There are also some speakers in Togo, Benin and western Nigeria. It has a phonemic distinction between three vowel lengths.
