Why were language barriers a
problem in the Middle
Colonies?

Bcoz of The Middle Colonies flourished economically due to fertile soil, broad navigable rivers and abundant forests. The Middle Colonies were the most ethnically and religiously diverse of the British colonies in North America, with settlers coming from all parts of Europe and a high degree of religious tolerance.Hope this helps you!!

Because people came from all part of Europe, Africa, and some from the Amaricas there where many different languages and it was hard for the people, and the workers to communicate together
