I am doing a project for a college education class. I'm wondering what languages are most prominent in south africa? Also, I wonder how many languages are spoken in all? Thanks

Ahem.

That's not actually correct.
The following figures are from the September 2000 Pan South African Language Board survey (The most recent I have stats from):
Zulu
Xhosa
Afrikaans
Setswana

In that order.

The only discrepancy this bears with regards to the 1996 Census, is the Setswana should be replaced with Sepedi as number 4.

Some of the Koh Samui villas are set on peaceful hills adjoining sea. So, when a sea wave hits the big boulders below, you are actually able to experience some butterflies in your stomachs. Such is the experience of the exotic locales where these Samui villas are located. The villas are located in peaceful places, but not much far from action. You can anytime visit the flee market to buy exotic sea shells, or belts made from fish’s skin for you dear and near ones.
