洋泾浜语
A
PidginLanguage
is not the native language of anyone but is used as an auxiliary or supplemental language between two mutually unintelligible speech communities. Pidgins are reduced languages, characterized by having a limited vocabulary and a simple grammar which serve to satisfy basic communication needs. Historically these languages have primarily arisen in trade centers and plantations (with slaves from different language backgrounds), areas where large groups of people lacking a common language need to communicate. By definition, a pidgin has no native speakers, it is always a person's second (or more) language.(extract from http://www.ethnologue.com/)

ndyuka trio 洋泾浜语
The
NdyukaTrioPidginLanguage
is a
PidginLanguage
of
Suriname
. SIL code: NJT. ISO 639-2: crp. Population: No estimate available. Region: Southern Suriname, upper Tapanahonij River. Comments: Formerly used until the 1960s by the Ndyuka and Trio and Wayana peoples for trading. Increasing travel by the Indians to the coast at that time cut back on that trade, and also gave some of them opportunity to use Sranan in contact with the Ndyuka. Many Ndyuka men in their 30s or older now do not know it. Scarcely used at all now. Trade language. Second language only.(extract from http://www.ethnologue.com/)
