In South Africa, English is the most spoken language (of their 11 official ones). It’s the one almost everyone understands, brown, black, white. But people still have their own languages. Afrikaans, all the former tribal languages, and probably more I don’t know about.
My experience is rather narrow, but besides some very young (pre 1st grade) children who only spoke their tribal language (Request: If anyone is offering online tutoring in Sesotho, I’d love to get contacted), I never encountered anyone who didn’t speak English.
