Equatoguinean Spanish (Spanish: Español ecuatoguineano) is a Spanish dialect spoken in Equatorial Guinea. This is the only Spanish dialect that is official in sub-Saharan Africa. It is spoken by almost 89% of the population or 447,000 (Note: Population figures for this country are highly dubious), in which about 10% are first-language speakers.
Unlike American Spanish dialects, this is the only official Spanish dialect along with other African Spanish dialects which follows the model of Castilian Spanish or peninsular Spanish. But there are some differences in pronunciation for those who speak it as second language. Descendants of German refugees who came to Equatorial Guinea after they were defeated in Cameroon also gave an accent to their Spanish.
