In the context of the South African Education Department of 2009, the mother tongue of a learner would normally be the first of two compulsory languages studied at school. This language is currently called "home language". The other compulsory language is called "first additional language" and is studied on a more elementary level than the "home language". In some cases a learner would even study a third language, which would then be called "second additional language".

In a previous dispensation the above-mentioned languages were called "first language", "second language" and "third language".
