Black History Trivia – It is estimated that about 2,000 different languages are spoken on the African continent. Many Africans speak several African languages and also often another ‘European’ language.

English is widely spoken in Africa as many countries were formerly British colonies. Arabic, spoken in northern Africa, is also used in many North African countries as an official language. Swahili, spoken in many Eastern African countries, has the most native speakers in Africa.
