The Creole Debate
McWhorter, John H. (Columbia University, New York)
Creole specialists have long argued that it is wrong to think of creoles as anything but language blends, in the same way that Yiddish is a blend of German, Hebrew and Slavic. This book debunks this idea, and presents the compelling argument that creoles are in fact among the world's only genuinely new languages.
