- Q1520992 abstract "Togo is a multilingual country. According to one count, 39 languages are spoken. Of these, the official language is French. Two of the most spoken indigenous languages were designated as national languages in 1975: Ewé (Ewe: Èʋegbe; French: Evé) and Kabiyé.Among the other languages in Togo, Mina (the dialect of Ewé spoken in Lomé) serves as the working language in the south of the country, Mobaa, Tem (also called Kotokoli) and Fula (Fula: Fulfulde; French: Peul). Most of the indigenous languages of the country can be divided into two groups: the Gur languages in the north, and the Kwa languages in the south.The two national languages tend to be used regionally: Ewé in the south from Lomé to Blitta, and Kabiyé in the north.According to the Délégation générale à la langue française et aux langues de France, 30% of the population have a working knowledge of French, 37% according to the French Ministère des affaires étrangères in 2007.According to Couchoro "The notable fact is that in the past 15 years, through developmental factors, and particularly to increased education, there has been a vast expansion in the use of French. The consequence has been an appropriation of French like never seen before". (Lafage, 1985, 551).According to Isabelle Anzorge "This is just an imported language, but it gradually assumes a Togolese identity, freeing itself from all normative constraints, thereby integrating the cultural realities of the country."The latter noted the existence of a French dialect: since the fall of conscription due to economic and political upheaval (the collapse of phosphates, devaluation of the CFA, university strikes following the general strike of 1992, climate of civil war since 1991), French [has] become a tool or a means of communication of most Togolese, educated or not. " Education for the deaf in Togo uses American Sign Language, introduced by the deaf American missionary Andrew Foster.".
