Details
The use of the English language in most member countries of the Commonwealth of Nations was inherited from British colonisation. English is spoken as a first or second language in most of the Commonwealth. In a few countries, such as Cyprus and Malaysia, it does not have official status, but is widely used as a lingua franca. Mozambique is an exception - although English is widely spoken there, it is a former Portuguese colony which joined the Commonwealth in 1996. Many regions, notably Canada, Australia, India, New Zealand, South Africa, Singapore and the Caribbean, have developed their own native varieties of the language. Written English as used in the Commonwealth favours British as opposed to American spelling. Although Hong Kong and the Republic of Ireland are no longer part of the Commonwealth, the English language still has official status in these two territories. The report of the Inter-Governmental Group on Criteria for Commonwealth Membership states that English is a symbol of Commonwealth heritage and unity.
