KOMMENTARE ZUM SPRACHKONTEXT
"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."
