They do NOT speak Spanish here! They speak Dominican here which has a root from Spanish but it isn't the same!
Let me teach you the language! First you take Spanish then you drop off every "S" in every word unless it is the first letter which is also crushed but comes in the next lesson!
For instance "Mas which is more in Spanish is Ma" in Dominican!
That is lesson number one! Second lesson is that you shorten every word and sometimes just drop words or sylables altogether! Take Spanish "Donde Tu Esta" which means "Where are you"! In Dominican it is now "Donde tu ta"
Same for "How are you" which in Spanish is "Como Esta Usted" Dominican is "Como tu ta"
There are more lessons I can give you such as the Name Scott becomes Escott or even Esca! We have to put a E before every word that starts with an S and since we have no idea how to use an "S" it has to be bastardized!
Thats the truth-the whole truth so help me Gawd!!!

Spanish ( Castellano) is the official language here.
But like in every country of the world the language has his
"slams" from one region to an other. But generally in the hotels and touristic areas they speak some English.

I agree with Jazz and Gilbert. It is Spanish/Dominican. it is like everywhere where people speaks spanish or english the country or island put it own accent. like Jamaicans has their accents in English/Jamaican. and so on. AnyWay It is Spanish official and tourist area biligual. Spanish/English

SPANISH, ESPANOL. ALTHOUGH ...JAZZ is right and abosultely more to the point .Dominicans speak Dominican Spanish. The other day this guy from south Mexico (what ever .and their random Indian(native American) dialect Spanish and expressions their language is their won also) tried to correct me the other day and said "Como ESTASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS" expressing that stress I just laughed and blew his ugly assssss off.Trying to make fun of the way we talk .I said como essssstassss punetaaaaa. jajajaja.He did nothing as expected. Jazz is right though drop your ess and shorten the word like Todos-estas-bien =ta-to-bien. wepa
Its like to me Mexicans sing when they talk from Mexico read not chicano.kind of like white Americans speak english they seem to sing when they talk and Afro Americans do not and Afro Amer drop their s's and shorten words also aight?? hmmmmmmmm...
