While Swahili is a widely spoken language in Africa, it's not the official language of every country on the continent.
Here's a breakdown:
* Official Language: Swahili is an official language in five countries: Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, and Burundi.
* Widely Spoken: Swahili is spoken as a second language or lingua franca (common language used for communication) in many other countries, especially in East and Central Africa.
* Other Languages: Africa has a huge diversity of languages. Many countries have multiple official languages, including French, English, Arabic, Portuguese, and many others.
So, while Swahili is important and widely used, it's just one of many languages spoken across Africa.
