Caribbean Hindustani is a form of the Bhojpuri dialect of Hindustani spoken in Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana, Suriname, Jamaica, Barbados, and the rest of the Caribbean region with significant Indian influence. The language is spoken by the Indo-Caribbean descendants of emigrants from the Hindi Belt (Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Haryana, Bengal, Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh in India, and Madhesh in Nepal). Because a majority of people came from the Bhojpuri region of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, Caribbean Hindustani is most influenced by Bhojpuri, Awadhi, Braj Bhasha, and other Bihari varieties of the Hindustani language.
