I was just wondering if there were any percentages out there of what language they spoke?

The great majority of Colombians speak Spanish. And it's NOT a bastardized Spanish as someone said here. It's actually one of the best.
Nobody in Colombia speaks Guarani, as someone else said. That's a language spoken in Paraguay
Quechua is maybe spoken by some of the Indian tribes near the border with Ecuador and Peru.
There are other Indigenous languages spread all over the country, but they are a very small percentage of the population.
The main language spoken in Colombia before the Spanish arrived, "Chibcha", is totally lost. Nobody speaks it today.
Stating what you don't know makes you sound and look MORE stupid than you really are.

Although I am not quite sure of what you are asking, I do know that all these people of Spanish heritage, speak a bastardized version of the true Spanish language. That is because over the centuries, words and terms,used by the population of the regions which they inhabit, have changed.

Many in Colombia speak Guarani and Quechua which is the Inca language.
