Résumé
This chapter offers a global overview of Spanish-based creoles and the state of the art of the discipline. Section 1 presents what is generally considered “the group” of Spanish-based creoles. Two creoles are then discussed in some detail, Palenquero (Section 2) and Papiamentu (Section 3), providing sketches of their (a) sociolinguistic history and (b) linguistic structure. Completing this overview, Section 4 covers Chabacano (spoken in the Philippines), albeit in briefer fashion due to limitations of space. In Section 5, attention is then turned to several Latin American areas that once may have been creole speaking (these include Highland Bolivia, Peru, and western Colombia). This same section also makes reference to Bozal Spanish, i.e., the L2 Spanish formerly spoken in the Caribbean and elsewhere by slaves born in Africa.
