Why bahamian language are spoken?

Answer 1

English is the official language. Although, you might hear Bahamian English. It's a mixture of Queen's diction, African influence and island dialect.

Answer 2

Somewhere between 50,000 and 75,000 persons of Haitian ancestry live in The Bahamas- most as immigrants who arrived without proper documentation but some 20- 30,000 who are citizens. This segment of the population speaks Haitian Kreyol and 'Bahamian' English.

There are a few thousand Spanish speakers who also speak English. Add to this another few thousand ethnic Chinese and you have a sizeable group of Mandarin or Cantonese speakers.

We are further enhanced with hundreds of other language speakers from Brazil and Europe as well as many Asian states introducing Portuguese, continental French, German, Italian, Hindi, Tagalog and a myriad of other languages.

The Bahamas is truly cosmopolitan in its make-up but we do have to deal with our apparent national reluctance to recognise the 25% of our population who are Kreyol speakers and who have contributed much to our national development over the past two hundred years, particularly with the success of the 1804 revolution which caused so many of our ancestors to dream of the end of nineteenth century slavery. Thank you Haiti.
