Curios
South African English is a language variety originating from English colonization of the South African region in the 18th and 19th centuries.
SAE is the primary language and one of the 11 official languages of South Africa, along with Afrikaans and 9 indigenous languages (Zulu, Xhosa, Pedi, Sotho, Swati, Venda, Tswana,Tsonga and Ndebele).
The main South African English varieties are: White South African English, Black South African English, Indian South African English and Cape Flats English.
White South African English, WSAE, consists of three sub-varieties associated with different social environments:
– The Cultivated variety, which resembles England’s Received Pronunciation and is more commonly spoken by the upper class.
– The General variety, spoken by the middle class.
– The Broad variety, associated with the working class.
Black South African English, BSAE, is spoken by native speakers of indigenous African languages.
Indian South African English, ISAE, emerged among the descendants of Indian immigrants and resembles Indian English.
Finally, Cape Flats English developed among BSAE inner-city Cape communities.
