What is "creolization"?
Creolization is the process through which a creole language develops and becomes established within a community. This occurs when speakers of different native languages come into contact and create a new, stable language that incorporates elements from each of their original languages. During creolization, the new language evolves to meet the communication needs of its speakers, often featuring a simplified grammar and vocabulary while developing its own unique characteristics. This process is influenced by social, cultural, and historical factors, leading to the emergence of a fully developed language that becomes the native tongue of a community.
