- Abstract:
The article offers information on Haitian Creole, which is the true national language of the Republic of Haiti. As stated, all Haitians speak the language but only a small minority of about 10 percent of the population speaks French. It states that Creole referred to persons of European origin who were born and raised in the overseas colonies but later it was used for languages that arose in the islands where Europeans established plantations of cash crops.
