Not starting crap but haitian kreyol is
waaaaaaaaay different from cajun french.
They are not the same at all and while
they share some similarities (since the
parent language of both is french), they
are more like spanish and italian. My
grandfather and mother speak haitian
kreyol, they do not speak cajun french.
Now keep in mind that haiti has two
official languages, kreyol (no this is not
a misspelling, this is the proper way to
spell the name of the haitian language)
and french. So if you come across a
haitian speaking french don't assume it's
kreyol.

You're right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They're are .Cajuns and they're are
.Creole.
I think I said that in one of my posts.
Hell, I made so damn many!! It's hard to
keep track.
But we have *both* big time down here.
They mix heritages so many people are
both.

Lol you guys. I wasn't trying to be
sh*tty. It's like one of my pet peeves
that people think that it's the same
language. Not even close (alright, so
it is). I don't know how you ask if
someone has children in cajun french but I
doubt it sounds anything like esk ou gen
piti ou.

creole
from
wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
the word creole is an adaptation of the
castillian-spanish word criollo, which
came into english from french between 1595
and 1605. Creole and its cognates in
other languages (such as crioulo,
créole, kriolu, criol, kreyol, kriulo,
kriol, krio, etc.) may refer to:
-a person of spanish (or french or
portuguese) ancestry but born in one of
the spanish (or french) colonies, as
opposed to a spaniard (or frenchman or
portuguese) born in spain (or france or
portugal)
any of the creole peoples, a number of
distinct ethnic groups in various
countries
-a creole language, a type of language
formed from a pidgin
creoles and patois spoken on islands
formerly under french colonial rule
the creole pig, a breed of pig from haiti
-a little known genre of classic rock,
unbeknownst to many modern day musicians.
The style originated as a cross between
rock and roll and 20's style era swing
music. Very little is known about this
style, and mark knopfler is one of the few
remaining visionaries.
-a casual reference to mean "pertaining to
new orleans" or aspects of its culture
-creole (api), a programming database
abstraction layer for php5 named creole
-a style of classic rock made popular by
mark knopfler
-la compagnie creole, a 1980s french pop
band
-in converging technologies, technical
vocabulary common to several disciplines
which allows stakeholders to communicate
effectively
the term louisiana creole usually refers
to the louisiana creole people in the us,
and concepts associated with them

How confusing so some of my cousins are
creole? Technically I mean.
Im pretty sure some cape verdeans speak
creole. Those are the only creoles I
really know and they dont really call
themselves creole.
