Argentina, Chile, Paraguay, and Uruguay Languages


Forming the southern triangular wedge of South America, the countries ARGENTINA, CHILE, PARAGUAY, and URUGUAY have a variety of peoples and languages - too many to list all of them on a blog post! Therefore, this post is focused on official languages and other widely spoken languages. In all four countries, Spanish is the official language.

  • Argentina: Other widely spoken languages include Quechua, Mapuche, English, Italian, German, and French.
  • Chile: Other languages include Araucanian, Quechua, and Mapuche.
  • Paraguay: Guaraní is an official language alongside Spanish. Two of Paraguay's many languages include Guaná and Sanapaná.
  • Uruguay: Portuñol/Brazilero (Portuguese-Spanish) is another spoken language.
