A creole language, or simply a creole, is a stable language that originates from a mixture of various languages. The lexicon of a creole usually consists of words clearly borrowed from the parent languages, except for phonetic and semantic shifts. On the other hand, the grammar often has original features and may differ substantially from those of the parent languages.
A creole is believed to arise when a pidgin, which was developed by adults for use as a second language, becomes the native and primary language of their children — a process known as nativization.

    You can always have the volume down when you present the video.

  • This is an amazing video! I was really hoping to include it in for my presentation on Creole for class! ...But the video's song isn't really something you can play in an academic setting, so there go all my hopes... :(
