Anguillan Creole is a dialect of Antiguan and Barbudan Creole spoken in Anguilla, an island and British Overseas Territory in the Caribbean. Although classified as a dialect of Antiguan and Barbudan Creole spoken in Saint Kitts and Nevis, Antigua and Montserrat due to a common British colonial history, it is actually closer to the British Virgin Islands and Saint Martin varieties of Virgin Islands Creole. The number of speakers of Anguillan Creole is below 10,000. Anguillan Creole does not have the status of an official language.
