The 1 official language of Uruguay is Spanish, spoken by virtually everyone. Uruguay is very monolingual.

In the northern parts of Uruguay they speak Portuñol (also called Brasiliero), which is a mix of Spanish and Portuguese.

Uruguayan Sign Language is the deaf sign language of Uruguay, used since 1910. It is not intelligible with neighboring languages.

Here is a list of 10 minority immigrant languages spoken in Uruguay, but these languages have no political or social recognition, and are only spoken by very small minorities:

  1. Catalan-Valencian-Balear
  2. Corsican
  3. Eastern Yiddish
  4. Hunsriker
  5. Italian
  6. Lithuanian
  7. Plautdietsch
  8. Portuguese
  9. Russian
  10. Standard German

English is the most widely taught foreign language, but not very many people are fluent in it.
