Bilingualism in the United Republic of Cameroon
Constable, D.
English Language Teaching Journal, 31, 3, 249-253, Apr 77
The status of bilingualism in Cameroon is unusual in that both French and English are foreign languages. Although French seems to be predominant, the official intent is to establish bilingual primary schools to create completely bilingual individuals. This approach is costly, difficult, and perhaps unnecessary. (CHK)
