Creole

A Creole is a stable natural language that develops from the simplifying and mixing of different languages into a new one, often in a context where speakers of several languages need to communicate but do not share a common language.

Creoles arise in situations such as colonization, trade, and plantation economies, where diverse linguistic groups come into sustained contact.

They begin as pidgins, simplified languages used as a means of communication between speakers of different languages, and over time, as they become nativized, particularly when children begin speaking them as a first language, they evolve into fully developed languages with their own complex grammar and vocabulary.

Creoles are distinct from the languages that contribute to their formation, possessing unique linguistic features.
