The national language of Sri Lanka is singhala it it spelt like a bunch of squiggly line but it is very interesting to learn singhala is only spoke in Sri Lanka but other people who live in Sri Lanka may speak English or French and most of the time the people speak Tamil. The history of Sri Lanka is also very good to know I am only 9 and I am learning about the history of Sri Lanka. But if you think about it I live in Sri Lanka so there you go you now know the national language on Sri Lanka and it is a very good tropical island Aswell so if you come here on holiday check out the beaches the culture and most of all the people get to know them because they are really nice the first 6 weeks I was here I felt like I was living the dream but then after you spend quite a bit of time here it gets even better.

Sri Lanka has a language that no one else in the world uses as a primary language. The language is Sinhala, an ancient buddhist language used even years before sanskrit.

Now 89% of the island uses that language, in fact 1 of every 100,000 people speak sinhala on the island. But that leaves 11% of the island to speak something else. 6% speak Tamil, and only 4% speak it well. 5% speak english and only English. So that leaves you with three languages that are spoken on the island nation of Sri Lanka, and out of the 89% that speak sinhala 53% can speak little English with it.
