A dependable cooling trade wind blows from the east, and fewer than 22 inches of rain fall anywhere on the Island during a year. redigeerima
Language	On the Caribbean Island of Aruba, there are many languages spoken. The official language is Dutch, and schools require students to learn both English and Spanish. French and, to a lesser extent, Portuguese are also present on the Island. However, Arubans also speak a local creole language known as Papiamento, according to the Government of Aruba[1] an Afro-Portuguese Creole. Dutch has been the official language of the Island for years as the Island is a part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, but Aruba has recognized English as an international language, and has required that children learn English as early as the 4th grade. Aruba's location off the coast of South America has also made Spanish extremely important. Students begin learning this as early as 5th grade. Papiamento is a creole language with roots mainly from Portuguese, and to a lesser extent, from Dutch and English, and originated in the 16th century as a means of communication among slaves and slave drivers. redigeerima
Food and drink	Not much food is grown locally, but the variety in the local cuisine is extensive. There is a very wide range of international cuisine and several of the more famous fast-food chains have premises on the Island. Specialities: • Keshi yena (Gouda cheese packed with a spicy meat mixture of either chicken or beef and then baked). • Stobà (lamb or goat stew). • Cala (bean fritters). • Pastechi (meat- or cheese-stuffed turnovers). • Ayacas (leaf-wrapped meat rolls). redigeerima
