Interesting Facts

• Language Background: Wolof is a widely spoken language in Senegal, the Gambia, and Mauritania, primarily by the Wolof people. It is part of the Senegambian branch of the Niger–Congo language family and is unique among its peers for not being a tonal language.
• Cultural Significance: The Wolof language, originating with the Lebu people, is the most spoken language in Senegal, not only by the Wolof people (40% of the population) but also as a second language by many other Senegalese.
• Language Characteristics: Unlike most Niger-Congo languages, Wolof is not tonal. It has a standard dialect known as "Dakar-Wolof," which blends Wolof with French and Arabic.
• Historical Influence: The Wolof language has influenced English, with words like "banana" and "yum/yummy" having origins in Wolof.
