There is no African language. They all have different languages. So, they speak lots of languages. In some cases a second language which is not native is spoken. That may be English, French or something else. Something else is a difficult language to learn. I've been studying something or other instead. I couldn't resist. That's it. No common language for the entire continent.

There are hundreds of different languges spoken in the individual countries of Africa, Swahili is a major one,with many different dialects. Zambia recognizes 73 different languages officially.Perhaps more detail on your question would facilitate a more complete answer.
Regards,Ed
Ps English and/or French and/or Esperanto are likely to be spoken in each country as well,depending on history

There are a very large number of African languages. In Nigeria, for example, the primary languages are Hausa, Yoruba, and Igbo. The largest language family in Africa is the Bantu languages, which includes Swahili. In addition, of course, are the many languages of the European colonizers.

Countries in Africa have diffrent languages and dialects, north africans speak french, arabic, and some parts english since they were colonized by france and great britain, i.e.,morocco, tunisia,egypt. you can also here some spanish and portuguese especially in northern africa, since morocco is only a few miles away from spain and portugal
Soth africa speaks english and some african dialects such as swahili, they were colonized by great britain. then all other countries have many african dialects, depends on the tribes, and the area.
And they arent Africa's they are Africans

no, it depends largely on what countries colonized them. Some of the more common languages are French, Africaans (which comes from Dutch), English, some Italian, and many native African dialects like Swahili. In the north they also speak Arabic in many countries.

Yes, many countries have different languages but the one native to Africa and that crosses most borders in terms of usage would be Swahilli..

There is also one very important language in Africa that is called "Afrikaans"- it is spoken in S. Africa and countries around it. I think it has about 16,000,000 speakers. It descended from old Fremish and also, other languages got mixed into it. It is an interesting language to study.
