THE YORUBA LANGUAGE
Across Western Africa, more than 50 million people speak the Yoruba language as their first language.
Because of its significant ties to many of African descent around the globe, it is one of the most studied African languages today.
A testament to its impact culturally, socially, and religiously, Yoruba’s diasporic communities are far-reaching, from Brazil, Cuba, Australia, and Haiti, to South Carolina and Philadelphia in the United States, and more.
