Abstract

Sango Godobé is known as the language of the street children (Godobé) in Bangui, capital of the Central African Republic (CAR). It is a variant of Sango, the national official language of the country (Pasch 1994). It differs from the latter among other things by manipulations which we have described in 2015, manipulations which are characteristic for many so-called youth or secret lan-guages. The description is based primarily on observations carried out by Germain Landi in 2011-2012 before he came to Cologne for his PhD studies in 2014. Our motive for this research was to produce a presentation on Sango Godobé for the international Workshop Youth Languages and Urban Languages in Africa (Cologne, 30.05-01.06.2012) which took place just after Landi's first arrival in Europe.
