How do you say Hello in the Congo?
Fun fact of the day: although French is the official language of the Republic of Congo, there are a reported 62 different languages spoked throughout the country — all of which are living languages. That makes saying “hello” not really the simplest of tasks.
So here are at least a few to start with:
- Bonjour – French
- Mbóte – Lingala
- Moyo – Tshiluba
- Mwalangikai – Kisanga (good morning)
Any linguists out there? We’d love to add more to our list!
