Wolof is the most widely spoken language in Senegal and serves as the lingua franca across that country and parts of Gambia and Mauritania, with around 10 million speakers. Although French is Senegal's official language, Wolof dominates in everyday speech and increasingly in trade, music, and media. The US Wolof-speaking community is concentrated in New York City — particularly Harlem and the Bronx — plus Cincinnati, Atlanta, and Memphis, with strong representation in retail and street commerce. Our Wolof translation work is mostly USCIS asylum and family-court paperwork, alongside healthcare and school-enrolment translation. Wolof is written in the Latin alphabet.
