It’s fantastic to walk on the streets of Mali knowing people are speaking so many languages. It’s this kind of caracteristic that makes the country so interesting. Bambara is the most spolek language but also reflects a specific ethnic group, so other ethnic groups have to know and communicate with some Bambara words on their daily basis.
