English is the official language of the state. However Spanish is making inroads throughout the state. In some parts of South Florida, Spanish is the preferred language in everyday activities.
Native-born Floridians will usually speak in a southern accent. However, after the migration of millions of Americans from other states to Florida, the southern dialect is becoming diluted with other accents.
