How many people speak Setswana in Botswana South Africa Namibia and Zimbabwe respectively?

The latest population census of Botswana shows that the population of that country is just over 2 million. about 75% of the people in Botswana are ethnic Batswana (i.e. they are not called Batswana due to residing in a country called Botswana). These are, as it were the custodians of the language in Botswana. this is 1.75 million. In South Africa (the cradle of all Setswana speakers merafe) there were about 4 million in the last population census. so 5 million would be a good guess. Many people believe that the Batswana (in the ethnic sense and not geopolitical) are originally from Botswana. The fact is they are from South Africa originally, and this is where the majority of all Batswana reside. Namibia had about 30,000. I guess they are bout 40,000 presently.


You Keep changing the spelling it is Botswana word. Having something to do with the manner in which a female is addressed In Botswana.?

"Botswana" is the name of the country and literally means "of Tswana". "Bo" meaning of or from. A person from Botswana is referred to as a Motswana. "Mo" pertaining to singular. Many people from Botswana are referred to as Batswana, Batswana is the plural of Motswana. "Ba" pertaining to plural. The most widely used language in the country is Setswana. The use of such words as "Botswanan" or "Botswanian" is actually incorrect and are never used in the country itself, a national of Botswana is referred to as a Motswana, nationals as Batswana. When referring to a product or item from Botswana you would merely describe it as a "Botswana product", not Botswanan or Botswanian etc.
