Well in my opinion it should be English and spanish as an official language but probably because despite some belizeans speaking both, Belizean creole which is English based is the preferred language.. However different districs within Belize speak different languages.. Belize city has a lot of Creole, Cayo has a lot of spanish, Stann Creek speaks mostly Garifuna, etc...... a lot of languages can be heard around the country!

Belize speaks correct English for Belize.
