What is the worlds newest official language?

Answer 1

Dagelf Said: If you are talking about the age of the language, then the only country in the world that has an official language that is less than 130 years old is Israel. That language is Modern Hebrew, which was revived by Eliezer ben-Yehuda in the 1880's.

Prior to 1880, Modern Hebrew did not exist.

It's spoken by around 7 Million Israelites. Although, it's still just a revival of Hebrew.

Afrikaans, on the other hand, evolved from a combination of many different languages, also during the late 19th Century - the first published works dating to the 1860's and 1870's. It was developed into a scientifically advanced, modern language in the early 20th century - the SA Government developed itself into a Nuclear Power *in Afrikaans*. It's the native language for around 6 million South Africans.

NO WAY!!! Of course Indonesia!!! Indonesia don't have an official language until 1920s, where Indonesian Language is developed from Malay and Dutch!!!
