Cameroonian Pidgin English

== English == === Proper noun === Cameroonian Pidgin English A creole spoken in Cameroon Synonym: Kamtok ==== Usage notes ==== Despite the literal meaning of the word pidgin, the language is instead considered by linguists to be a well developed creole, because a creole is the native language of a group of people, whereas a pidgin has no native speakers, and is a blended, ad-hoc trade language used when two groups of people have no other common language to communicate. Creoles develop from pidgins, and this language is no longer in the pidgin stage. === See also === Wiktionary’s coverage of Cameroon Pidgin terms
