Gola language
Gola is a language of Liberia and Sierra Leone. It was traditionally classified as an Atlantic language, but this is no longer accepted in more recent studies. Classification
Gola is not closely related to other languages and appears to form its own branch of the Niger–Congo language family. Previously, Fields (2004) had classified Gola as a Mel language most closely related to Bullom and Kisi. Distribution
According to Ethnologue, Gola is spoken in widespread regions across Liberia. It is spoken in Gbarpolu County, Grand Cape Mount County, and Lofa County (between the Mano River and Saint Paul River), as well as in inland areas of Bomi County and Montserrado County. Dialects are Deng (Todii), Kongba, and Senje. Writing system
Multiple writing systems have been used to transcribe the Gola language. Until recently, the Vai script was used across Liberia and Sierra Leone. References
