Meanwhile countries like USA, Russia and others have only one majority language spoken by the population there are others which speak more than 3! That's really amazing. Congrats people from Namibia!

Wow this is so awesome... Namibia seems like a cool place, with streets, shops, friendly people. I am so sorry, I my head it was a bit stereotyped and generalized T.T Now I can see I was so wrong. And what an amazing diversity! I loved the video, please more about Namibia!! We need african english/other languages to join the game :)

Just browse around, there are many vidos about Namibia.
realy they are intelligent people they speak fluently many diffrent languages
Owwww I never cease to be amazed at the amount of languages around the world! The cultural richness worldwide it's incredible! Regards from Peru! 😍
I admire the fact that in most of sub-saharian African countries they speak at least 2 languages even in cities. Here in Latin America native languages are spoken just for few people and basically there are no ways to learn them. Yes, most of our Latin American countries have 10, 30, ... even 100 indigenous languages but in most of places it's extremely difficult to find somebody who speaks at least one of those languages and there is a lack of resources to learn them

Hi there. This is an absolutely AMAZING video. Thank you.

It was so weird for me to see an old white lady speak with a clicking language. I loved it! Love Namibia
My father grew up in Namibia and my aunt was born in Windhoek . in Namibia have my grandparents and their children (my father and my aunt). languages were Afrikaans and German At home they spoke German and Afrikaans. I love Afrikaans because my father and I speak German and Afrikaans at home Why Afrikaans and English because my grandfather said, in order to have respect you have to use your mother tongue but also use a second language e.g. Afrikaans for the working world in Namibia and South Africa my grandparents spoke Afrikaans and German
Such a refreshing video.. thanks
Tolles video!!! Hope to join your crew sometime EES, Ich bin jetzt in Dänemark aber kommt im Dezember.
It's so interesting to see how people there are :) I like watching even if not for learning the language, because it opens your mind to more ways of life and culture. Thank you
This is so cool!!
wow. Got to do a know more about this place more. Can't imagine so many langages in one country.

Is Amazing to speak many languages in your country, it will be more easily to learn another language. Congratulation guys for sharing the video.
Amazing their accent is not that heavy. Naijas have the heaviest accent in the whole world and their pride and confidence is unprecedented.

Hi, although some people predict that it will go down with Afrikaans in N and SA. Recent research show that Afrikaans as first language grow in Namibia and in SA in SA it grow in 11 years with 800000 more people ! Tv news and paper are in Afrikaans.

+ Saxon Warrior You have to learn to be tolerant, that is number 1! I was born and I grew up in Namibia and now I am a senior citizen. Ok, my mother’s parents came to Namibia after WW1, my grandfather hated to be a soldier. He became a farmer. My father came to Namibia after WW 2. They all came from Germany. I was never raised to hate anybody. The gradual moving away from apartheid started already in the early 1970’s. I was shocked when I came to Cape Town in 1975 to see that there were 2 entrances at the post office. One for black people and one for white people. I was not used to that at all. Our change happened very gradually, and I think that was very good. People could get used to new ways and ideas very gradually. On top of it all most of my countrymen and women are peaceful and not fighters.

I'm Dutch but same haha. At school we once had Namibian students coming to our school and we were able to communicate speaking Dutch and them Afrikaans and use English if we didn't understand eachother but for the most part it is pretty easy to understand eachother. It did help that my best friend his sister has a South African husband though who I talked with a ton so I had alot of practice 😂. Also interesting to hear them speak in their native language but I forgot which language that was but not all the students spoke it. Some only spoke Afrikaans.
More more more please

Start teaching your children languages at a very young age. Unfortunately I never learned Nama, because I was already 11 when my parents moved to the farm, and the farmworkers' children spoke Afrikaans to us. They only taught us very nasty swar words. Such a pity.
Home town??
No mínimo todos são bilingue.
My gunsteling tale is Duits, Nederlands en Afrikaans. Hierdie drie tale is Wes-Germaanse tale. Deur hierdie drie tale kan jy na Duitsland, Oostenryk, Switserland, Nederland, België, Aruba, Curaçao, Sint Maarten ( wêreldwyd bekend as gevolg van die vliegtuie wat oor die strand laagvlieg ), Suriname, Suid-Afrika en Namibië reis.
E o português???
