Until he reached the coast, equiano reports that he was able to understand the language of the people he lived with. what can you infer from this? a. his group was widespread and most owned slaves. b.he had never really traveled very far from his home village. c.each village had its own dialect of a common african language. d.his kidnappers were not aware that he belonged to a related people.

We can infer from this that C. Each village had its own dialect of a common African language.

Equiano writes in his autobiography Life of Olaudah Equiano about what a slave's life was like at the time. In the text above, we can see that there were many different tribes located there, but he was able to understand their languages nevertheless, even though they weren't the same as his own. Based on that, we can infer that all of these dialects belong to the same group, same African ancestor, which is why he can understand them, at least until 'he reached the coast.'
