I want to know the answer to the following question:
What the low estimate for the number of people who speak Afrikaans?
All the background I'm provided with is that "The Cape Dutch dialects of Southern Africa have evolved into Afrikaans, a mutually intelligible daughter language[n 3] which is spoken to some degree by at least 16 million people, mainly in South Africa and Namibia.[n 4]". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
