Jour de la Francophonie

The French language in Congo is a bridge, a tool, and a constant negotiation. French is the official language, the language of government and education, but on the street it shares space with Lingala, Kituba, Kikongo, Mbochi, Teke, and a dozen others. Every Congolese person is multilingual before breakfast. The Francophonie celebrates this linguistic richness, this ability to move between worlds with every sentence.
