Man, Marie Fernandes laa tudd. Agsil! Come on in! In this course, I you will learn you how to speak Wolof! Wolof is a language spoken mainly in Senegal, the Gambia and in the Diaspora. In Senegal, although French is the official language, Wolof is the lingua franca, meaning people from different ethnic groups who do not understand one another’s language will use it to communicate.
