  • Gen ist die Sprache des Volkes Mina. Die Mina leben in Togo und Benin. Bekannte Dialekte sind Anexo, Gliji, Agoi und Gen. Gen gehört zu den Kwa-Sprachen. Insgesamt differieren je nach Quellenangaben die Zahl der Sprecher des Gen zwischen 358.900 und 436.000 Sprechern. Im Benin sprechen Gen ca. 158.000 (2001) und 111.000 Menschen, in Togo zwischen 200.900 und 325.000 . In Togo leben die Gen-Sprecher im südöstlichen Teil Togos in der Region Maritime.

  • Le Gen (parfois appelé Gẽ ou Gen-Gbe) est une langue Kwa du groupe Gbe, parlée au sud-est du Togo et dans la province de Mono, au Bénin. C'est une langue nigéro-congolaise. Comme les autres langues du groupe Gbe, c'est une langue tonale. On estime qu'il y a 320 000 locuteurs du Gen.
  • La lingua gen (chiamata anche gẽ o gen-gbe) è un idioma della famiglia linguistica gbe, parlata nella regione Marittima del Togo e nel dipartimento di Mono del Benin. Il codice ISO 639-3 è gej. Fa parte della sottofamiglia delle lingue kwa, appartenente alle lingue niger-kordofaniane. Così come le altre lingue gbe, il gen è tonale. Secondo Ethnologue, vi sono circa 327.000 madrelingua gen, 200.900 togolesi e 126.000 beninesi.
  • Het Gen is binnen de Kwatalen een lid van de Gbe-talen-subgroep en wordt gesproken door de Mina, een volk dat in Togo en Benin leeft. In Togo leven de meeste sprekers van het Gen in het zuidoostelijke Maritime-gebied, in Benin in de departementen Mono en Atlantique. Het precieze aantal sprekers van het Gen is onbekend, maar de schattingen lopen uiteen van 358.900 tot 436.000. In 2001 had het Gen in Benin naar alle waarschijnlijkheid tussen de 111.000 en de 158.000 sprekers, in Togo tussen de 200.900 en 325.000. Net als alle Gbe-talen is het Gen een toontaal.
