    How is creole a combination of two languages? It’s a pidgin language that there is native speakers.

    A pidgin language is all about communication between language groups. It can be easily downloaded or edited. In a logical way, it has much simpler vocabulary and grammar. What it is like to speak a pidgin language because nobody speaks it as their primary language… it serves as a lingua franca (shared language) between two linguistic communities.

    Pidgins are not necessarily anyone’s primary language. For example a Tagalog-speaking sailor might contact a Arabic-speaking merchant in port, or a Russian tourist in Japan might contact her hosts using basic English to speak with them).

    “Most of the times, pidgin speakers are trained so very well to speak only one pidgin language”. At that point the language is considered a Creole language. In Haiti, the classic example of this is Haitian Creole, which started out as a simplified version of French used by African speakers in Haiti, and quickly became the primary language kids learned. One big example is the area of Tok Pisin in India.

    What is Yiddish? It is mostly an in group dialect that became a fully fledged language when it got its first army ) Joke! ) It was not intended to be used as a lingua franca, although sometimes it served this purpose when Jews from different linguistic communities (e.g., Chinese, English, French) met in a similar context. Germany and Poland) both used this language as a

    common language whereas the Czech and the German were the German partners.
