Description:
Contact Languages: Pidgins and Creoles deals in depth with the questions of how pidgins and creoles originate, their relationship with their source languages, the stages of development through which they pass, and how their speakers use them in everyday interaction. There is detailed discussion of recent controversial theories, such as the Language Bioprogram Hypothesis and the debate between "universalists" and "substratists, " as well as more practical issues such as the role of pidgins and creoles in education, and how pidgins and creoles are to be written down. Throughout the book, case studies of specific languages provide examples linking theory with actuality.
