Pronunciation edit
is the final E in the name of the country pronounced or silent? Is the official pronunciation any different from what most English speakers would expect? Humphrey Tribble (talk) 06:59, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
- The note seems to allow both pronunciations of Leone? Do the people use both? Humphrey Tribble (talk) 21:41, 26 November 2023 (UTC)
- I do not know anyone inside or outside the country that would pronounce the E. Davidbstanley (talk) 08:06, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
Official Language edit
Does the govt of Sierra Leone recognising "Bengali"as official language of their country ? Rabindra iop (talk) 13:19, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
- @Rabindra iop: No. This has been discussed extensively in this talk page's archive and at Talk:Bengali language. --Worldbruce (talk) 13:51, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
- Verdict: False. Bengali/Bangla, spoken in Bangladesh, has never been declared Sierra Leone’s official language. It is neither recognised nor spoken anywhere in the country, as claimed by the referenced media organisations. I found on some websites. Rabindra iop (talk) 17:14, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
Sierra Leone is not Arab? edit
I’m from Sierra Leone, and I am Arabian. I am Muslim, and I speak Arabic. I’m sure some other people from Sierra Leone are Arab too, why is it not considered Arab? 76.214.106.131 (talk) 04:27, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
