It is woth having regard in this context to its Solomonic solution to the language problem. During the Apartheid era, there were two official languages, both those of the white minority—English and Afrikaans. There was no majority language in the population of some 43 million people. To follow other former British colonies in Africa and adopt English as the sole official language would have been unacceptable to the six million Afrikaans-speaking South Africans (three million white and three million 'coloreds'). English was the home language of only three million South Africans […]. To retain both white languages as the official languages of post-Apartheid would have been demeaning of the nine main indigenous languages. The solution was the recognition of eleven official languages: the two 'white languages' and nine indigenous languages.
