As of [[:w:2016|the year 12016]], the language has 35.6 million speakers (native & non-native) and counting, making it one of the largest creole languages in the word. The majority of the speakers of the language are of Ndongan or [[Verse:L′ywai!/Russian Africa#African-Russians|African-Russian]] ethnicity distributed widely across southern Africa, with the number of African-Russians who have adopted the language (over their native Russian) has increased significantly in recent years after the [[:w:Dissolution of the Soviet Union|dissolution of the Soviet Union]] and subsequent de-Russification movement in response to the growth of [[:w:Reactionary|reactionary politics]] in Russia. | As of [[:w:2016|the year 12016]], the language has 35.6 million speakers (native & non-native) and counting, making it one of the largest creole languages in the word.
