This month we asked where is Suriname and what is their official language. Suriname is a South American country located north of Brazil. Its official language is Dutch but Sranan Tongo (literally, “Suriname language”), a Creole language, is the most common choice for informal conversation.
The question, and answer, were found in CultureGrams. This database provides brief country reports with concise information on the history, people, customs, lifestyle, society, travel information and more for over 175 countries.
