Liberia is a multilingual country where more than 20 indigenous languages are spoken. English is the official language, and Liberian Koloqua is the vernacular lingua franca, though mostly spoken as a second language.
The native Niger–Congo languages can be grouped in four language families: Mande, Kru, Mel, and the divergent language Grebo.[http://www.ethnologue.com/show_country.asp?name=liberia Ethnologue page on Languages of Liberia] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111018114601/http://www.ethnologue.com/show_country.asp?name=Liberia |date=2011-10-18 }}{{Cite web |url=http://www.tlfq.ulaval.ca/axl/afrique/liberia.htm |title=Aménagement linguistique dans le monde - Liberia |access-date=2009-11-23 |archive-date=2012-09-13 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20120913210256/http://www.tlfq.ulaval.ca/axl/afrique/liberia.htm |url-status=dead }} Kpelle-speaking people are the largest single linguistic group.
