Spoken English by DSwede
Belize is one of only a handful of Latin and South American countries that speak English. Obviously due to proximity of their neighboring nations, Spanish is widely used and understood.This has to do with the historical connections to the British colonization.
However, Belize is the only Latin American country to speak English.
Other non-Spanish countries are to be found in South America:
Suriname - Dutch
Guyana - English
French Guyana - French
Brazil - Portuguese
There are a few in the Caribbean too, like Trinidad & Tobago, which speaks English.
(I've been to all but one of the above... hope to complete the list soon!)
