Guyana Language Information

The official language in Guyana is English, this is a result of the country’s colonial past as formerly British Guiana. Most of the population speak Guyanese Creole which is English based with some African and East Indian influences. Additionally some communities speak Amerindian languages. Guyana is the only English speaking country in South America. It is a great place to experience different cultures but still be able to understand the language!
