Language choices among Tanzanian Instagram users with Carolyne Ulomy

This episode of Africa's LSP Podcast explores the language choices among Tanzanian Instagram users. Our guest, Carolyne Ulomy, sheds light on her research into the factors that influence language choices among Tanzanian Instagram users.

We'll delve into the factors influencing these choices, from national languages like Swahili to lesser-known community languages. Carolyne will also discuss how social media platforms can better support this rich tapestry of languages and the potential implications of a growing multilingual online space in Tanzania and Africa.
