Afrikaans Language Tests

About Afrikaans Language Tests

Bluebird Afrikaans Tests evaluates your knowledge of Afrikaans and provides an official PDF certificate of proficiency with your CEFR score (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages).

You can take the test in your mother tongue, with 144 mother tongues supported.

There are two options available for taking the test:

1) Free. You can take the Comprehensive Afrikaans Test (non-adaptive) in any language, containing 882 quizzes, and receive a free certificate of proficiency with your CEFR score upon completion. The comprehensive test is the largest such test in the world and takes about 70 hours to complete. You can do the test at your own pace, over as many days as you like. A leaderboard displays your rank against all other test-takers worldwide, and you can easily track your progress at any time.

2) Paid. For a low fee, you can take our Rapid Afrikaans Adaptive test, which will provide you with a certificate of proficiency with your CEFR score in just 45 minutes. The rapid test uses questions that are progressively more difficult to accurately gauge your level of proficiency.

This app does not teach Afrikaans. It assumes that you already have sufficient knowledge of Afrikaans and specializes in assessing your proficiency.

Each official certificate is in PDF format, and contains your overall CEFR score, as well as your score for each functional area: Reading, Writing, and Listening. The PDF certificate contains a link to the official version of your certificate, stored in perpetuity on our secure servers, so you can make the results available to your employer, school, etc.
