English is one of the 11 official languages of South Africa, and is widely spoken and used in government, education, and other areas of public life.

One characteristic of South African English is the use of unique words and expressions that are not commonly used in other varieties of English. For example, a speaker of South African English might use the word "braai" to refer to a barbeque, or "robot" to refer to a traffic light. South African English also includes loanwords from Afrikaans.

There are approximately 4.9 million English speakers in South Africa, which represents about 8% of the population. Additionally, many South Africans speak other languages such as Afrikaans, Zulu, Xhosa, and Sotho, which are also official languages of the country.
