Gibraltar residents speak a unique dialect called Llanito
The 38,500 residents of the Rock of Gibraltar use a linguistic blend that fuses British English with Andalusian Spanish and Genoese Italian.
In the shadow of the Rock of Gibraltar, a territory of just 6.7 square kilometers, the local population has spent centuries blending the languages of the Mediterranean. This dialect, known as Llanito, is more than just Spanglish. It is a complex linguistic hybrid that mirrors the history of a territory that has been under British rule since 1713 while remaining physically attached to Spain.
