Cayman Islands English is an English creole spoken in the Cayman Islands. While not much has been written on Cayman Islands English, according to one text, it "seems to have borrowed creole features similar to Jamaica and Central America without having undergone creolization" (John Holm 1989:479-80). The creole is similar to varieties of Belizean Creole.
