Discussion
a. Language pidgin and creole
1. Pidgin
A
Pidgin is a variety of a language that developed for some practical purpose,
such as trading, among groups of people who had a lot of contact, but who do
not know each other`s language. As such, it would have no native speakers.
Pidgin is characterized an absence of any complex grammatical morphology a
somewhat limited vocabulary. Inflectional such as –s(plural) and -`s(
possessive ) on nouns. And the syntax of pidgins can be quite unlike the
language from which were borrowed and modified. For example :
The Pidgin of
Dasuksubdistrict

Pidgin

It`s origin in the
Sumenep word

|
Kanton

Katon
(like)

JĔrĔbjĔbbĔn
|
jĔreppĔn
()

|
Bitthe`

bithek

|
lhalag
|
lalak

From
the evidence above that those word not only almost the way to pronounce is not
the same thing but also the meaning of all of the word have different meaning.
The word of kanton, JĔrĔbjĔbbĔn, Bitthe` Bitthe` is made by among group of
Dasuksubdistrict who had a lot of contact, who did not know each other`s
language that would have no native speakers that is no one`s first language but
it is a contact language. That is, it is the product of multilingual situation
in which those who wish to communicate must find or improvise a simple language
system that will enable them to do so.
2. Creole
When
a pidgin develops beyond its role as a trade or contact language and becomes
the first language of a social community, it is described as a creole. A creole
initially develops as the first language of children growing up in a pidgin
–using community and becomes more complex as it serves more communicative
purpose. Creoles have large number of native speakers are not restrict at all
in their uses. The separate vocabulary elements of pidgin (kanton, JĔrĔbjĔbbĔn,
Bitthe` lhalag) can become grammatical elements in a creole. Where creoles
evolved, there was development from pidgin to a creole, it is usually called as
creolization. If the process whereby
a creole is used with fewer distinct creole features as it become more like a
standard variety, in contrast to creolization, is called as decreolization.

Conclusion
A
language is dynamic where the language always evolve and change related with
the era. So in changing and development will be found some terms such as pidgin
and creole. Pidgin is a language that development for some practical purpose
between two or more groups. Creole is when a pidgin develops beyond its role as
a trade or contact language and becomes the first language of a social
community. Pidgin can be creole when the foreign speakers used a language of
pidgin becomes the first language in a social community. Creole has more than
pidgin speakers, the pidgin only the original language. When someone mentions a
creole language, then it should advance the language has been proven
historically on its origin.
