Hi. What can you tell me about Grenada? 
 Yes i can ! On 10 February 1763 , the island of La Grenade was ceded to the British under the Treaty of Paris . 
 Ok. So it's an island? Where is it located? 
 Grenada is an island nation in the Caribbean Sea that received its independence from the United Kingdom in 1974. Its capital is St. George's. 
 Okay. Can you tell me about its etymology? 
 Of course! The origin of the name " Grenada " is obscure , but it is likely that Spanish sailors renamed the island for the city of Granada . 
 That's cool. Do you know anything else about its name? 
 On his third voyage to the region in 1498 , Christopher Columbus sighted Grenada and named it " La Concepción " in honour of the Virgin Mary . 
 Interesting. You mentioned that it was under British rule until 1974 and Spanish sailors likely renamed it to its current name. So, does that mean English or Spanish are spoken there? 
 English is the country 's official language , but the main spoken language is either of two creole languages ( Grenadian Creole English and Grenadian Creole French ) which reflect the African , European , and native Indian heritage of the nation . 
 Wow! They have quite the mix. Do you have any other information on languages? 
 Grenadian Creole French is mainly spoken in smaller rural areas , but today it can only be heard in a few small pockets of the society . 
 Awesome. That's all the information I need. Thank you! 
 You are so welcome!
