Limonese Creole, or Limonese Patwah, also called Limón Creole English, or Limonese, or alternatively Mekatelyu, is a dialect of Jamaican Patois (Jamaican Creole), an English-based creole language, spoken in Limón Province on the Caribbean Sea coast of Costa Rica. The number of native speakers is unknown, but 1986 estimates suggests that there are fewer than 60,000 native and second language speakers combined.[2]
