BetawiLanguage
The BetawiLanguage is a MalayBasedCreoleLanguage of Indonesia (Java and Bali). SIL code: BEW. ISO 639-2: crp. Population: 2,700,000 (1993 Johnstone). Region: Jakarta, Java. Alternate names: JAKARTA MALAY, BETAWI MALAY, BATAVI, BATAWI, MELAYU JAKARTE. Comments: 'A Malay based creole which is quite distinct from both standard Indonesian and from other Malay-based pidgins and creoles.' It had evolved by the mid-19th century. Unique phonological, morphological, and lexical traits. There are also influences from Peranakan Chinese and Bali. Often not intelligible to Indonesian speakers not familiar with it (R.B. Allen, Jr. 1989). Functions as a 'low' variety in a diglossic situation, but is a prestige variety when used by the upper class. The people are called 'Betawi Asli' or 'Betawi.'

 CreoleLanguageA CreoleLanguage is a PidginLanguage that has developed and become the mother tongue for a community of people. This process is called 'creolization' and results in an expanded vocabulary and grammar structure that allow for communication as rich and complex as that of non-creole languages. While pidgins are regarded as reduced languages, creoles are considered expanded languages. That is, while pidgins develop to enable communication in relatively isolated domains, creoles allow for a full range of expressive possibilities on a par with more 'recognized' languages.(extract from http://www.ethnologue.com/)
