Top 11 Best English Speaking Countries in Africa

[MK254]

A study conducted by World Linguistic Agency has rated Uganda the Best English Speaking Country in Africa. This comes in the wake of a video from a Miss Rwanda contestant that was shown struggling with English in a country that made a move from Francophone to Anglophone.

After Uganda, the following countries came in closely; South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya and Namibia. Despite their strong traditional accent, Nigerians were credited for taking the spot for constructing good sentences that are grammatically flawless.

The full list is here:

1. Uganda

2. South Africa

3. Nigeria

4. Kenya

5. Zambia

6. Botswana

7. Zimbabwe

8. Malawi

9. Ghana

10. Rwanda

11. Sudan

It's amazing Rwanda started use of English by switching from French recently, and have featured in top ten, beating even the down south giant.

How about Tanzania

 

[lucasogutu]

We can make Tanzania be among the best English speaking countries in Africa if we teach English and use it effectively in our daily activities. It goes without saying that English as a language is prerequisite in the world.

 

[Dusty Foot]

Been in almost all those countries..I think Kenya should be ranked number 1..This research is a farce!

#3 English ndio ilipoenda kufa

[Eiyer]

Hii thread ina malengo gani?

 

[Kibona]

how about Tanzani..

Tanzania is a Swahili speaking country. Countries like Tanzania and Ethiopia are struggling to get away of colonial mentality, so they should not be expected in the list of the best colonized African countries.

 

[Somoche]

Tanzania is best in swahili though...so i dont see any issue here....

 

[Nemesis]

Chetu ndio kipi maana hata Kiswahili ambacho kilitokana na mwarabu bado sio chetu, labda nijivunie lugha yangu ya asili Kikikuyu.

 

[King Kong III]

Noma sana.

 

[Msulibasi]

Tuweke wazi ninyi wakenya mnafikiri kingereza kinawapa superiority kwa watanzania hii ilikuwa kweli miaka ya tisini mpaka 2005. Wakenye wanahangaika sana kujua kiwahili hadi wanatia huruma we wasikilize wasanii wao wanapenda hawwezi nilikua na shori wa Kenya nilikuwa nikiongea kingereza anapenda niongee Kiswahili ajifunze .Alikuwa anapenda hiki Kiswahili cha kimjinimjini

 

[wa kupuliza]

Sifa kuu za lugha ni kuzaliwa, kukua na kufa.

 

[Fadhilim]

On my side I do appreciate Kenyan by using good English in deed

 

[MK254]

unafahamu sifa kuu za lugha???

Maziku Masunga Jr. Much respect, it's against the JF board rules to use ones full names when addressing each other. Focus on the topic at hand and avoid personalities, we all have our respective names and personal lives but are not dragging them here.

Haya nikirejelea mada, kwa ufahamu wangu, sifa na umuhimu wa lugha ni kuwasiliana na kuelewana. Na ndi maana sisi Wakenya hutumia sana lugha zetu za asili kwanza, halafu baadaye lugha za kigeni kama Kiswahili cha Mwarabu na Kingereza huwa tunatumia kuwasiliana na wale hatuelewani kwenye lugha zetu za asili.

Kingereza pia tunatumia sana maana kinatuwezesha kuimarika kiutalaam, Kiswahili hata Wabongo ndo mnakipigia debe lakini hamkitumii inapokuja maswala serious, kwa mfano stakabadhi zenu nyingi zipo kwa kingereza kama tenders, mikataba, sheria na kadhalika.
