Information from: “Language Endangerment in West Africa: Its Victims and Causes” . G. Tucker Childs (2006)
Information from: “Intelligibility and Language Boundaries among the Cangin Peoples of Senegal” (47-67) . G. Williams (1994)
"According to the Atlas National du Sénégal (Institut Géographique National 1977)... Ndut and Non are listed with 15,000 [speakers] each."
"There are few monolinguals among the Cangin... it appears, then, in the Cangin groups as a whole, that the mother tongue is the language of family ('Home') and friends... it is important as well for prayer according to one-third (21 out of 60) of those surveyed."
Wolof
French
Arabic
"Wolof stands out as the principal language of inter-group communication, indicated by its high scoring in such public domains as 'Market,' 'Mosque/Church,' and 'Public transportation.' It is also used, to some extent, in the schools... French, however, is perceived by a greater number to be the language of use in an educational setting. Arabic is used only for religious activities... Although Wolof is a very important language for these people, the mother tongue is the language with which they truly identify."
"Found near the coast of Senegal, in the area surrounding Thiès and extending north as far as Tivaouane and southwest as far as Popenguine."
