The Haitian Creole Language is the first book that deals broadly
with a language that has too long lived in the shadow of French.
With chapters contributed by the leading scholars in the study of
Creole, it provides information on this language's history;
structure; and use in education, literature, and social
interaction. Although spoken by virtually all Haitians, Creole was
recognized as the co-official language of Haiti only a little over
twenty years ago. The Haitian Creole Language provides essential
information for professionals, other service providers, and Creole
speakers who are interested in furthering the use of Creole in
Haiti and the Haitian diaspora. Increased language competencies
would greatly promote the education of Creole speakers and their
participation in the social and political life of their countries
of residence. This book is an indispensable tool for those seeking
knowledge about the centrality of language in the affairs of Haiti,
its people, and its diaspora.
