Languages of South America : ウィキペディア英語版 | Languages of South America
The languages of South America can be divided into three broad groups: the languages of the (in most cases, former) colonial powers; many indigenous languages, some of which enjoy co-official status alongside the colonial languages; and various pockets of other languages spoken by immigrant populations that have survived assimilation by the majority languages. ==Main languages==
The languages imposed by the process of the European colonization of the Americas are mainly Indo-European. Portuguese is the majority language of South America, by a small margin. Spanish, with slightly fewer speakers than Portuguese, is the second most spoken language on the continent.〔http://www.nytimes.com/2007/06/26/arts/television/26rebel.html?ex=1340510400〕〔http://itre.cis.upenn.edu/~myl/languagelog/archives/004674.html〕 Dutch is the official language of Suriname; English is the official language of Guyana, although there are at least 12 other languages spoken in the country, including Hindi, Arabic, and various indigenous languages. English is also spoken in the Falkland Islands. French is the official language of the French overseas department of French Guiana.
