French and French Creole Interlanguages

Georges Daniel Véronique

Abstract

This paper discusses the major role played by language learning processes in the birth of creole languages. The notions of pidgin, pidginization and creolization are examined in a language contact and SLA perspective. The evolution of the verbal system and of negation in the emergent French related creoles is compared with developmental sequences observed in French interlanguages.
