Affrican slang

African slang varies alot seeing as how there are about2,000 different languages spoken in Africa. The major languages used in Africa are Afro-Asiatic, Nilo Saharan, Niger Congo, and Khoisan. They also use alot of sign language as well. Most of the African languages use clicks in their words. They also use tonal qaulities to communicate. African slang is similar to our own because we use tonal qaulities and sign language to communicate.

Questions.
What do most African languages use?
How is African slang similar to our own?
