South america?


Can anyone name a country in South America that does NOT speak spanish or a different dialect of spanish?

Brazil (Official language: Portuguese) Guayana (Official language: English), and Suriname (Official language: Dutch).

French Guiana, although not a country but is located in the South American continent, is an overseas department of France. Their official language is French. The South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands (SGSSI) is a British overseas territory. They are located just of the South American coast in the South Atlantic Ocean, and their official language is English. Also, the Falkland Islands, also located in the South Atlantic Ocean off the coast of South America, are a self-governing Overseas Territory of the United Kingdom. They are claimed by Argentina and their official language is English.

Also, many don't consider these countries in South America, but are practically just off the coast. Aruba (Official language: Dutch, Papiamento), is just off the coast of Venezuela and is a member state of the Kingdom of Netherlands. Netherlands Antilles (Official language: Dutch, English, Papiamento), just off the coast of Venezuela is an autonomous part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. And, Trinidad and Tobago (Official language: English), located just off the coast of Venezuela.

Suriname

Haiti

French Giana, they speak maily french there.
Brazil, they speak Portuguese there.
and Haiti ain't in South America

Yes, Adyari is right, but there are other 2 British territory that is located in South America as well that speaks English, one is South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands and the other is Falkland Islands.

in the malvinas islands or also known as falkland islands in argentina, they speak english i guess because that territory i`ts still a colony of england. even if geographically speaking they clearly are argentinian!

Brazil
Surinam
and Guyana


Belize is not in south america, and the Falklands are not a country.
