French used to be the language of the colonial force in Algeria, and to this day, Algerians have mixed feelings about the French language as well as French culture and history. Most countries in the world focus primarily on English as the first foreign language taught in school. As a foreigner going to Algeria, you immediately get the impression that the contact to the outside world in Algeria goes through the French language, and that most internationally related topics reflect a certain French-speaking perspective in stead of being influenced by American media.
Some might argue that this is two sides of the same coin. While Algeria is beginning to focus more on teaching the English language in schools, French remains the first foreign language spoken in the country. French is often seen in Algeria as the language of the cultural elite, whereas the political elite speaks MSA and the bulk of the people speak Derja.
While French has the status of being an intellectual language, it is also the language of secularism and a language that represents Europe. MSA is equally the language of education, news, public announcements, the law and anything remotely formal. Trying to communicate in MSA in the streets of Algiers would be the equivalent of striking up a conversation in downtown Manhattan while speaking Shakespearean English.
It would seem weird. As mentioned earlier, French is the foreign language of choice in Algeria, but recently, English has received a little more attention, and the country has started focusing a little more on teaching English in schools. Some even speak of a radical shift from one foreign language to the other , which has received some criticism.
The fact of the matter is, however, that Algeria has very few English speakers for the time being. Navigation menu Personal tools English. Namespaces Page Talk. Views Read View source View history. Submit Wiki Content Report a Problem. Beginning Research. Algeria Background.
