Code Switching, Pidgins, Creoles

CMU CS11-737: Multilingual NLP

This week we will explores code-switching, pidgins, and creoles as linguistic phenomena. Code-switching involves fluent speakers mixing languages, often driven by convenience, social signaling, or semantic nuance. Pidgins emerge as simplified lingua francas between groups with different native languages, while creoles develop when pidgins acquire native speakers.
