English is the official language for the country of Belize, which was once known as British Honduras.

On the streets of Belize City, creole is predominant between the locals.

With Belize sitting between Guatemala and Mexico and with the large influx of refugees from the neighbouring central american countries, Spanish is widely spoken and frequently found to be the first choice of language once outside of Belize City.

Belize on a whole is a melting pot of many nationalities and you will find many other languages widely spoken locally, such as German between the Amish Mennonites, Chinese, Hindu and Arabic.
