Adele language
The Adele language is spoken in central eastern Ghana and central western Togo. It belongs to the geographic group of Ghana [Togo Mountain languages] of the Kwa branch of Niger–Congo. The speakers themselves, the Adele people, call the language Gidire.
Writing system

The Adele alphabet used in Togo is essentially the same, however Rongier uses fewer digraphs at the index of his Adele-French dictionary.
