Arabic
The main language of government, trade, and scholarship in West Africa became Arabic. Arabic script was used to write local African languages, and Arab traders and scholars played a significant role in the spread of Arabic as the language of commerce and education in the region. Additionally, Islamic education centers known as madrasas often taught in Arabic, further strengthening its status as the main language of government and scholarship.
French became the dominant language in Haiti through colonization by France in the 17th century. French settlers and slaveowners brought their language to the island as they established plantations and introduced enslaved Africans who often came from French-speaking regions in Africa. Over time, French became the language of the ruling elite and the language of education, government, and administration.
Arabic became the common language of Islam due to the spread of the religion across the Arabian Peninsula and beyond. The Quran, the Islamic holy book, is written in Arabic, and so the language became central to the practice and dissemination of the faith. Additionally, early Islamic scholarship and administration were conducted in Arabic, further solidifying its importance in the religion.
English became America's primary language during the colonial period, when British settlers began establishing colonies in North America in the early 17th century. Over time, English became the dominant language through cultural assimilation and the influence of institutions like schools and the government.
English became the official language of Barbados in the early 17th century when the island was colonized by the British. The English language was imposed as a means of establishing control over the island's population and facilitating communication within the colonial administration.
Greek became a world language primarily due to the widespread influence of Alexander the Great's empire, which helped spread Greek culture and language across different regions. Greek was also the language of scholarship, commerce, and diplomacy during the Hellenistic period, further solidifying its status as a global language. Additionally, the translation of the Bible into Greek, known as the Septuagint, played a significant role in promoting Greek as a universal language for religious texts.
