African languages From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. (Redirected from African language There are approximately 1800 languages spoken in Africa . Some African languages , such as Swahili Hausa , and Yoruba , are spoken by millions of people. Others, such as Laal Shabo , and Dahalo , are spoken by a few hundred or fewer. In addition, Africa has a wide variety of sign languages , many of whose genetic classification has yet to be worked out. Several African languages are also whistled for special purposes. The abundant linguistic diversity of many African countries has made language policy an extremely important issue in the neo-colonial era. In recent years, African countries have become increasingly aware of the value of their linguistic inheritance. Language policies that are being developed nowadays are mostly aimed at multilingualism . For example, all African languages are considered official languages of the African Union Contents Language families Afro-Asiatic Nilo-Saharan Niger-Congo ... edit Language families Map showing the distribution of African language families and some major African languages.
