What language to Texan people speak?

Texan people speak English.

However, Texan English has a distinct dialect with unique pronunciations, vocabulary, and even grammar. It's often called Texas drawl or Texan English.

Some examples of Texan English include:

* Vocabulary: Y'all, fixin' to, reckon, jalapeno, bluebonnets, crawfish, etc.

* Pronunciation: "Coke" instead of "soda," "Howdy" instead of "Hello," dropping the "g" at the end of words like "runnin'."

* Grammar: Using "ain't" and "might could," double negatives, etc.

While Texan English is a distinctive way of speaking, it's still based on the English language.
