What languages do you speak?

[jgraham]

I am doing a project for a college education class. I'm wondering what languages are most prominent in south africa? Also, I wonder how many languages are spoken in all? Thanks

The most common languages are, Afrikaans, English, Zulu and Sutu.

That's not actually correct.
The following figures are from the September 2000 Pan South African Language Board survey (The most recent I have stats from):
Zulu
Xhosa
Afrikaans
Setswana

In that order.

The only discrepancy this bears with regards to the 1996 Census, is the Setswana should be replaced with Sepedi as number 4.
