Wake up babe, new "non-western country is totally going to collapse guys" just dropped

No lol. We have 11 official languages (12 including sign language). isiZulu is the most spoken language at home, and English is basically the lingua franca.

Afrikaans (which is based off of Dutch) is spoken by 14% of the population. Another interesting thing to note here is that the majority of Afrikaans speakers are non white, in the coloured community (not a racial slur in South Africa, it's a culture/ethnicity). Afrikaans was the official language of the government during apartheid though.
