From Trade to Creole, an 'animated' and simplified view
Channel: The Virtual Linguistics Campus
Date: 2021-11-25

In many courses on the Virtual Linguistics Campus (https://oer-vlc.de) we use examples from pidgins and creoles from all over the world. Thus, we have to explain what pidgins and creoles are. As a first step, our digital topics use this video that simplifies the situation but - because of its charme - remains deeply entrenched in the students' minds. In the VLC in-class meetings more details are then added.
