Akoose

The digital home of the Akoose language

Akoose (also associated with Bakossi communities) is spoken chiefly in the Ekoose homeland of Cameroon. Swifin hosts a public language portal that combines a living dictionary, orthography specification, grammar notes, translation tools, community contribution, and APIs for research and AI systems.

What you will find here

• Dictionary — searchable Swifin Edition lexicon with provenance and review status (4,757 entries in the engine dataset; 46 editorial/native-track verified).
• Orthography — Swifin Edition (ASCII A–Z) mapping versus traditional orthography used in SIL/Webonary and academic materials.
• Grammar — starter and illustrative rules evolving toward a native-reviewed reference (acknowledge Hedinger and related scholarship).
• APIs & dataset — /api/public/akoose/engine-dataset, lexicon search, optional translate, OpenAPI for Custom GPT Actions.
• Governance — editorial policy, attribution, and path to an Akoose Language Council.

Authority positioning

Swifin does not replace SIL/Webonary or Glottolog. It aims to be the canonical modern digital platform for Akoose: citing permitted sources, preserving provenance, extending coverage, and making the language machine-discoverable. Benchmarks such as SIL’s published Akoose dictionary (thousands of entries) guide breadth goals.
