Jollof Words
Discover African Vocabulary
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
One dish. Two nations. The whole Continent has something to say. One word game to settle it.
Ghana and Nigeria have argued about Jollof for generations. Now the whole continent joins the debate - and vocabulary is your weapon.
JollofWords is the African word game that turns language learning into a cultural adventure. Trace words. Unscramble letters. Discover what each country is made of, one word at a time.
TWO WAYS TO PLAY
Word Search
Scan the grid and trace hidden words. Race the clock, earn points, and climb through categories as your vocabulary grows.
Word Scramble
The letters are all there, just mixed up. A clue points you in the right direction, but putting it together is your challenge.
12 LANGUAGES ACROSS 7 COUNTRIES
Ghana - Twi, Ewe, Ga, Dagbani, Hausa
Nigeria - Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa
Kenya - Swahili, Kikuyu

22 WORD CATEGORIES
Greetings. Food. Family. Faith. Feelings. Body parts. Nature and weather. Market and money. Jobs and work. Days and months. Love and sweet talk. And more - each category is a window into how a culture sees the world.
CLIMB THE RANKS
Every word you find earns you points. Start as a Kitchen Hand and cook your way up to Spice Trader, Party Cook, Pot Chief, and one day, Jollof Legend.
Your leaderboard keeps your best scores, most words found and fastest rounds, category by category.
BUILT FOR EVERYONE
Whether you're African, in the diaspora, a language student, or simply curious about the continent, JollofWords welcomes you to the table.
No prior language knowledge needed. Just curiosity, a love of words, and maybe a strong opinion about jollof.
