South Africa has 11 official languages, others I think it's different Khoi languages like Griqua, Kwe etc.. White South Africans outside of Afrikaans and English, have Greeks and Portuguese primarily, then you have the Indians! South Africa has the highest of Indians outside of India so I'm guessing it's their languages like Tamil, Hindi, Gujarati etc etc.. everybody in Africa is also in SA I'm guessing they're also including their languages, but is a lot more than the 42 1 Like |

That means language is not the barrier development, other stuff which I cannot figure out must be responsible for our chaos |

Fryx: You're a clown bro, how does this answer the question? You said their are locals before US founders found US and colonize it with English... At least you know Yoruba, Hausa and Igbo were being spoken before English became universal language and this same Yoruba, Hausa and Igbo are still well spoken up till date, and it's recognized globally... So what was the native language locals were speaking in US before the US founders found it, at least, the language should have it's identity... |
