El Salvador Languages

Description
Castillian, also known as Spanish, is the official language and is spoken by virtually all the population in El Salvador. A very small number (around 500) of indigenous Pipils speak Nawat or Nicarao. The other indigenous languages, including Poqomam, Cacaopera, and Lenca, are extinct. Indigenous immigrants of Guatemalan and Belizean origin living in El Salvador speak Q'eqchi'. The local Spanish vernacular is called Caliche or Salvadoran Spanish, which is considered informal. As in other regions of Central and South America, Salvadorans use voseo. This refers to the use of "vos" as the second person singular pronoun, instead of "tú".
