Various other native languages are spoken with less frequency across both Anglo-America and Latin America. <a href="/wiki/Creole_language" title="Creole language">Creole languages</a> other than Haitian Creole are also spoken in parts of Latin America.

It has more recently become widely spoken in other parts of the <a href="/wiki/United_States" title="United States">United States</a> because of heavy immigration from Latin America. High levels of immigration in general have brought great linguistic diversity to Anglo-America, with over 300 languages known to be spoken in the United States alone, but most languages are spoken only in small enclaves and by relatively small immigrant groups. The nations of Guyana, Suriname, and Belize are generally considered[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Words_to_watch#Unsupported_attributions" title="Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Words to watch">by whom?</a>] not to fall into either Anglo-America or Latin America because of their language differences from Latin America, geographic differences from Anglo-America, and cultural and historical differences from both regions; English is the primary language of Guyana and Belize, and Dutch is the primary language of Suriname. Most of the non-native languages have, to different degrees, evolved differently from the mother country, but are usually still mutually intelligible. Some have combined, however, which has even resulted in completely new languages, such as <a href="/wiki/Papiamento" title="Papiamento">Papiamento</a>, which is a combination of Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch (representing the respective colonizers), native <a href="/wiki/Arawak" title="Arawak">Arawak</a>, various <a href="/wiki/Languages_of_Africa" title="Languages of Africa">African languages</a>, and, more recently English.

Latin America and Central America are generally referred to as Latijns Amerika and Midden-Amerika respectively. The adjective Amerikaans is most often used for things or people relating to the United States. There are no alternative words to distinguish between things relating to the United States or to the Americas.
