The largest of these languages are Mòoré; spoken by more than 5 million people in Burkina Faso, and Dagbani, a lingua franca in the northern half of Ghana spoken by some 3 million people, including 2 million indigenous speakers. Among the smaller languages in this family tree is Notre, mainly spoken in Benin.

The group is open to membership by all interested individuals.
