I assume Barack Obama learned Indonesian when he studied there
as a boy. Does he know the languages of Kenya? What other
languages does he know? Did his stepfather taught him arabic.
Anyone know?

He can speak Swahili, Spanish, Indonesian and of course English. So I guess he’s well educated
more like esperanto
we don’t know, we’re not supposed to know, it’s all part of the nebulous ersatz orientalism of Obama, Inc.
You assume wrong. He speaks english; that’s it.
Obama knows the word "Gruetzi". It’s Swiss German and means "hello". Considering he lived in Indonesia as a boy, he should still be able to understand a lot of "Bahasa Indonesia". But no Arabic or Swahili (spoken in Kenya).
He admitted that he speaks no language other than English fluently, and that this is a source of embarrassment for him. There is no reason he would speak Swahili or Arabic.
He only speaks one. Amazing that he has asked that all Americans learn Spanish.
An old linguist joke for you:
What do you call someone who speaks more than two languages?
A polyglot.
And two languages?
Bilingual
And one?
An American!!
I’m a polyglot American so it is just a joke!
NO
