The Sotho language in South Africa

Sotho is one of South Africa's 11 official languages and is also the national language of Lesotho. According to the 2011 South African National Census, almost four million people speak Sotho as their first language in South Africa.

Most Sotho speakers in South Africa live in the Free State and Gauteng provinces. The language belongs to the Southern Bantu language family and is closely related to Northern Sotho and Tswana.

Learning Sotho as a second language can be challenging for non-native speakers due to its complex sound system, which includes unusual features like ejective consonants, click sounds and unique vowel harmony. This makes the Afrikaner woman's fluency all the more impressive.
