The spread of the word, nkɔnkɔnsa, through many West African languages, pidgins and creoles is an interesting one!

Nkɔnkɔnsa is a Twi word for insincerity, falsehood, hypocrisy and duplicity. It is usually used in contexts of gossip and rumors and the act of disseminating them. This word appears in different langauges in Ivory Coast and Gabon, in the Krios and Kolokwas of Sierra Leone and Liberia and even in the Kamtok of Cameroun, with similar meanings. We don't as of yet know how far this word has travelled, and in what variations, but we think its spread may partly be attributed to the brutal expansion of the Asante empire.
