Premise: Haitian Creole ( [ ˈheɪʃən_ˈkriːoʊl ] [ kreyòl ayisyen , links = no ] , [ kɣejɔl ] ; créole haïtien ) is a French-based creole language spoken by 9.6 -- 12million people worldwide , and the only language of most Haitians . The usage and education in Haitian Creole -- which is not mutually intelligible with French -- has been contentious since at least the 19thcentury : where Haitians saw French as a sign of colonialism , Creole was maligned by francophone elites as a miseducated or poor person 's French .
Hypothesis: Haitian Creole is based on French.
