BayIslandsCreoleEnglishLanguage
The BayIslandsCreoleEnglishLanguage is a WesternAtlanticEnglishBasedCreoleLanguage of Honduras. SIL code: BYH. ISO 639-2: cpe. Population: 13,000 first language speakers, including 10,000 on the Bay Islands, and 3,000 on the north coast (1998 estimate). Region: Bay Islands (Guanaja, Roatan, Utila), north coast including La Ceiba and Puerto Cortes, and some in the Mosquitia. Dialects: CALABASH BIGHT. Comments: Ross Graham says creole influence is wider than has been reported and still needs to be addressed (1996). They understand at least some of San Andres Creole (Colombia). They may not understand Limon Creole (Costa Rica), and they say Jamaican is different. A 'stronger dialect' in Calabash Bight needs investigation. The variety on the north coast is reported to be a creole. Investigation needed: intelligibility with Calabash Bight, North Coast, San Andres, Limon, Belize.(extract from http://www.ethnologue.com/)

 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/)
