The LG (language policy) for education and development in Tanzania has indeed undergone significant changes over time, starting from the period of German rule to recent years. During the early German colonial period, the language policy primarily focused on promoting the use of German as the medium of instruction in schools. However, with the end of German rule and the subsequent British administration, the language policy shifted towards the promotion of English and Kiswahili as the main languages of instruction and communication.
During this transition, six domains emerged in which both Kiswahili and English played important roles:
1. Education: Kiswahili and English are used as languages of instruction in Tanzanian schools. Kiswahili is taught as a subject, while English is taught as a second language.
2. Government and Administration: Both Kiswahili and English are used in government and administrative functions. Kiswahili is the official language of Tanzania, used in official documents, meetings, and communication. English is also used in official capacities, particularly in international relations and legal matters.
3. Media and Communication: Kiswahili is the primary language used in Tanzanian media, including newspapers, radio, and television. However, English is also used in certain media outlets, especially those targeting an international audience.
4. Business and Commerce: Both Kiswahili and English are used in business and commercial activities. Kiswahili is commonly used for local transactions, while English is used for international business dealings.
5. Literature and Arts: Kiswahili is the language in which Tanzanian literature and arts are predominantly expressed. However, English plays a significant role in the literary and artistic scene, particularly in works targeting a global audience.
6. Tourism: Kiswahili is the language used for communication with tourists in Tanzania. However, English is also widely spoken and understood in the tourism industry, as it is the global lingua franca.
These six domains reflect the evolving language policy in Tanzania, which has gradually shifted from a focus on German to the promotion of Kiswahili and English as the main languages of education and development.
