Culture of the Dominican Republic : ウィキペディア英語版 | Culture of the Dominican Republic
The Dominican people and their customs have origins consisting predominately in a European cultural basis, with both African and Aboriginal influences.〔, Claudio «(La hispanización del mestizaje cultural en América )» Revista Complutense de Historia de América, Universidad Complutense de Madrid. pp. 133 (1981)〕 The Dominican Republic was the site of the first European settlement in the New World, namely Santo Domingo, founded in 1493. Shortly after the arrival of Europeans, African peoples were imported to the island to serve as slave labor. The fusion of European, African and Taino traditions and customs contributed to the development of present-day Dominican culture. == Language == (詳細はDominican Republic. The local dialect is called Dominican Spanish. It closely resembles Canarian Spanish, and also has borrowed vocabularies from the Arawak language. Some common words derived from the Taino natives include: ''barbecue'', ''canoe'', ''caribbean'', ''hammock'', ''hurricane'', ''iguana'', ''manatee'', ''mangrove'', ''savannah'', and ''tobacco'' among others. Schools in the Dominican Republic are based on a Spanish educational model. Both English and French are taught as secondary languages on private and public schools. Haitian Creole is spoken by the population of Haitian origin. There is a community of about 8,000 speakers of Samaná English in the Samaná Peninsula. They are the descendants of formerly enslaved Africans who arrived in the nineteenth century. Tourism, American pop culture, the influence of Dominican Americans, and the country's economic ties with the United States motivate other Dominicans to learn English.
