Seeing no one answered this, I'll explain. While technically the official language is English, not many people speak it - most of the kids from the Namibia area I've come in contact with speak Oshewanbo along with either French or Afrikaans, and for most of them the only English they know is generally what they learned when told they were to be resettled in Australia (or after resettling).
I think that the languages used is a bit different among the white population, but not entirely sure. Interestingly, this travel guide website says slightly different information to what I've experienced personally / been told by Namibians: http://www.namibia-travel-guide.com/bradt_guide.asp?bradt=550 On 7 February 2016 at 15:30, AJ Wesley <[email protected]> wrote: > I am wondering what language the report is in that it needs an English > version. > Namibia only has one official language and it's English. > > rgds > AJW > > On 7 February 2016 at 12:55, Peter Brookman <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> I agree with Bob, that any accident related to gliding the reports are >> important that we are for one reminded of the consequences of things that >> may go wrong , although sad that it is about people, friends who >> unfortunately lost their lives.
