In addition there are some maps with relevant sociolinguistic features. The languages include pidgins, creoles, and other contact languages based on English, Dutch, Portuguese, Spanish, and French and languages from Africa, Asia, Australia, and the Americas. Each map is accompanied by a detailed description and discussion of the feature. The project is the successor to the successful World Atlas of Language Structures and draws on the same linguistic, cartographic, and computing knowledge and skills of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig. The Atlas is published alongside a three-volume Survey of Pidgins and Creoles which describes the histories and linguistic characteristics of 76 languages. The books have been designed, edited, and written by the world's leading experts in the field and represent the most systematic and comprehensive guide ever published to the world's pidgins, creoles and mixed languages. Individually and together the books are a unique resource of outstanding value for linguists of all persuasions throughout the world.},

  issn = {0165-2516},
  abstract = {The objective of this paper is to provide an analysis of a hitherto undescribed aspect of the linguistic scenario of Equatorial Guinea with the English Lexifier Creole Pichi (Yakpo 2009, 2010) at the centre of enquiry. The following topics are addressed:  (1) The status of Pichi in the Equato-Guinean polity; special emphasis is placed on the peculiarity of Equatorial Guinea being the only country of Africa in which an English Lexifier Creole coexists with an official language other than English; (2) A comparison of language policies, practices and ideologies vis-à-vis Pichi with those found in other English Creole speaking countries in the sub-region, i.e. Nigeria, Cameroon, Ghana and Sierra Leone – the discussion will focus on official responses to these languages in the respective countries. 
A preliminary conclusion is that the “exceptional status” of Equatorial Guinea due to its Spanish colonial past and the use of Spanish is superficial. Approaches to linguistic diversity, the status of African languages vis-à-vis the official language, the configuration of the English Creole in the linguistic scenario all reveal deep similarities with other countries across the sub-region. 
The context to the  enquiry is the following: In Equatorial Guinea as in many other African countries, a complex conglomerate of factors is responsible for the absence of African languages in the official sphere. For many African nations, multiple causes for continuities between colonial and postcolonial language policies have been identified, among them economic factors, cultural dependence on the former colonizer, internalized negative attitudes inherited from colonialism, elitism, and a lack of political vision and administrative expertise (cf. Muthwii \& Kioko 2004; Baldauf \& Kaplan 2007; Bamgbose 2000). In part due to their symbolic link with the convulsions and contradictions of the slave trade and colonialism, the English Creoles are particularly exposed to inherited attitudes about the “unfitness” of autochthonous languages to serve as mediums of communication in high prestige domains beyond the home, the marketplace or use in popular culture. Yet in Equatorial Guinea as in other English Creole speaking countries like Nigeria and Cameroon, the creoles have seen a spectacular expansion as languages of wider communication and home languages in the past decades.
By turning to such contradictions, this paper attempts to tease apart specific and general characteristics of approaches to linguistic diversity in postcolonial Equatorial Guinea and to determine degrees of continuity with language policies and ideologies in the region.},

  abstract = {Recent attempts to prove the simplicity of Creoles with respect to non-Creoles have, like preceding ones concentrated on describing the assumed paucity of selected surfacephenomena in quantitative terms. None of these accounts has taken into consideration that typically, Creoles are languages in contact. In the multilingual speech communities of West Africa but equally so in other regions, Creoles and Pidgins are in contact with lexifier superstrates, with historically unrelated non-lexifier superstrates and with a host of adstrate and substrate languages. This paper attempts to provide answers to two questions. (1) Can we reconcile the complexity of the mixed grammar and lexicon of a language like Pichi withthe notion of simplicity given that code-mixing of the type presented here forms an integral partof the linguistic system of the language? (2) Can we reconcile the restructuring (or “elaboration”in terms of the simplicity hypothesis) of Pichi grammar and lexicon through code-mixing within the short time-span of a hundred and seventy years with the notion that the youth of Creoles makes them simpler than non-Creoles?},

  abstract = {The English Creole Pichi is spoken as a native and vehicular language by most of the population of the island of Bioko, Equatorial Guinea. This chapter looks at the impact of Spanish on the lexicon, grammar and discourse patterns of Pichi speakers of today, by analysing Pichi-Spanish code-switching patterns as well as lexical and structural borrowing from Spanish. Pichi has been deeply influenced by Spanish. This has contributed to the development of distinct characteristics that set Pichi apart from related West African languages like Krio and Nigerian Pidgin. A combination of linguistic and non-linguistic factors proper to the linguistic ecology of Bioko have made Pichi open to hybridization with Spanish. This development is not completed, however, because large parts of the grammar of Pichi have not been transformed by contact with Spanish. Nevertheless, Pichi is, with its partially mixed character, a unique testimony to the Afro-Hispanic heritage of Equatorial Guinea.},

  volume = {25},

  abstract = {During the early and middle years of the nineteenth century a Creole elite emerged on the island of Fernando Po. The origins of this lay in the fact that for the thirty years after 1827 the island was at the centre of European political and economic interests in the Gulf of Guinea. The short-lived British occupation of Fernando Po, 1827-34, established the town of Clarence and brought to the island a number of settlers, and in particular 'liberated Africans', freed from slave ships captured by the Royal Navy. The situation they faced in Clarence and the treatment they received, not least once the British government withdrew and a succession of British traders attempted to run the town, led to the emergence of a homogeneous society out of the various ethnic groups they comprised. This society was to be transformed by the development of a palm oil trade on the island, particularly during the 1840s. This led to the emergence of a group of middlemen between the Bubi producers of the interior and the European traders who collected oil from Clarence, and concurrently, to the stratification of Clarence society into a trading elite and a group of labourers and servants. This trading elite was attracted to the work of the Baptist Mission in Clarence after 1841, and in particular saw the value of the Mission in giving itself a distinct identity. Over time this elite and the Baptists drew apart, but this was not before the interrelation of social stratification with the work of the Mission had produced a class of Creoles whose descendants - the Fernandinos - still survive as a distinct group in Equatorial Guinea today.},

Some of these reflect the influence of the Dutch superstrate, others clearly reflect the influence of the substrate languages of Sranan. These “Niger-Congo” structures are markedly different from equivalent “Indo-European” ones. Pattern relexification is  held responsible for  the wholesale carry-over of substrate semantics plus morpho-syntactic specifications into Sranan locative constructions. The synchronic variation in Sranan is partially explained by the equally broad variety of constructions found within and across the African languages and language families that participated in the creation of Sranan. However, much of the apparent diversity is superficial in nature, for it chiefly concerns constituent order. In contrast, morphosyntactic features like the nature of dependency, as well as the semantic structure of spatial descriptions remain highly similar in Sranan and the substrates.},

In creoles defined by some as pitch-accent languages, high tones in words that are derived from stress (accent) languages generally coincide with primary stress. I adopt herein the position that Krio is a tonal language, rather than a pitch-accent language. Tone is generally specified in the lexicon, particularly for lexical items of African origin. Tone assignment on disyllabic lexical items of English origin is unpredictable, albeit predictable in a limited set of polysyllabic lexical items: In this case, high tone generally orresponds with the primary or secondary stress that is closest to the end of the word. Finally, I propose a tonal rule of high tone deletion and spreading of low tone on the initial components of compounds of English origin.},

Originally published in 1930, it provided an invaluable solution to the problem of finding a practical and uniform method of writing African languages. The volume is bound with a small pamphlet which analyses the information on the Semitic and cushitic languages of Eritrea, Ethiopia and the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan. Related languages are grouped together into larger sections which have some linguistic significance. A further pamphlet, the Distribution of the Nilotic and Nilo-Hamitic Languages of Africa, describes the relationship between languages and dialects. For each language, data are given on locality, number of speakers, use for educational and religious purposes and the extent of vernacular literature. The linguistic material is set out in phonetic script with tone marks, though reference is made to current standard orthoraphies where these exist.},

  abstract = {Pichi (formerly known as Fernando Po Creole English) is an Atlantic English-lexicon Creole spoken on the island of Bioko, Equatorial Guinea. With at least 70,000 speakers, Pichi is an offshoot of Krio (Sierra Leone) and shares many characteristics with its West African sister languages Aku (Gambia) and Nigerian, Cameroonian and Ghanaian Pidgin. At the same time, contact with Spanish, the colonial and official language of Equatorial Guinea, has made a significant impact on the lexicon and grammar of Pichi. 

This first comprehensive description of Pichi is based on extensive fieldwork in Equatorial Guinea. It presents a detailed analysis of the phonology, morphology and syntax of the language and addresses language contact between Pichi and Spanish. The annexes contain a collection of interlinearised and annotated texts as well as Pichi-English-Pichi vocabulary lists.},

  abstract = {The idea is common that tone is lost or reduced during language contact, and during contact between tone and intonation-only (i.e. “stress”) languages in particular. The assumption is that tone is complex and therefore does not survive universal processes of simplification seen to accompany the formation of contact varieties. We instead propose a dynamic model for the evolution of contact prosodic systems, making two central claims. First, contact varieties develop lexical tone or stress in accordance with the dominant type in their ecologies via areal convergence. Drawing on primary data from Central African French (CAF) and Equatoguinean Spanish (EGS), and supporting evidence from other contact varieties, we show that tone systems can easily be transferred from tonal adstrates and substrates to intonation-only languages. Secondly, the outcomes of prosodic contact will reflect the possibilities and limitations of stress-to-tone mapping, the typological matching of intonation-only and tonal features specific to the languages involved.},

  abstract = {Pichi, an Afro-Caribbean English-lexifier Creole spoken on the island of Bioko, Equatorial Guinea, features four types of reiteration. Amongst them, reduplication and repetition can be distinguished on formal and semantic grounds. Reduplication is a derivational operation consisting of self-compounding and tone deletion. It is restricted to dynamic verbs and yields iterative, dispersive and attenuative meanings. Repetition occurs with all major word classes, renders more iconic meanings and is analyzed as semi-morphological in nature. A comparison with verbal reiteration in a cross-section of West African languages and two of its sister languages in the Caribbean allows the conclusion that Pichi reduplication reflects an areal pattern. I conclude further that Pichi reduplication is not exceptionally iconic nor specifically “creole” in nature.},

After first arguing that the previous accounts based on the Obligatory Contour Principle (OCP) (Leben 1973, McCarthy 1979, 1986) are not satisfactory, I propose an alternative theory of identity avoidance, GENERALIZED OCP (GOCP) which generalizes the applicability of the traditional OCP to a wider range of phenomena, not just autosegmental (i.e. featural) ones. My proposal asserts that identity avoidance between two elements in sequence is fundamental to linguistic theory, an idea that can be characterized by a universal constraint governing various types of dissimilatory phenomena. This concept is implemented within the framework of Optimality Theory (Prince and Smolensky 1993, McCarthy and Prince 1993a,b), which provides the flexibility for constraints to be both violable and rankable. Contrary to the traditional OCP based approach which is bound by various representational properties such as feature geometry and underspecification, the proposed approach abandons this representational dependency in favor of the richly articulated constraint-based system.},

The main focus is on the role of the paradigm known traditionally (and unfortunately) as the “Relative Perfective”, a set which is in partial complementary distribution with the “General/Neutral Perfective”. This specially inflected tense-aspect form is the one exploited at discourse-level to assert prominent events on the time-axis in foregrounded narrative sequences, but it is also required in classic clause-level wh-constructions, i.e., wh-interrogatives, declarative focus constructions, and relative clauses, operations which often share structural properties across languages. The central claim is that the fronted focus/wh- constructions and pivotal foregrounded portions of past-time narratives utilize the same specialized Perfective tense-aspect morphology because they achieve the same discourse-pragmatic goals—they all supply the most communicatively PROMINENT and focal NEW information.},

This phenomenon, known as code-mixing or code-switching, takes many forms. Pieter Muysken adopts a comparative approach to distinguish between the different types of code-mixing, drawing on a wealth of data from bilingual settings throughout the world. His study identifies three fundamental and distinct patterns of mixing - 'insertion', 'alternation' and 'congruent lexicalization' - and sets out to discover whether the choice of a particular mixing strategy depends on the contrasting grammatical properties of the languages involved, the degree of bilingual competence of the speaker or various social factors. The book synthesises a vast array of recent research in a rapidly growing field of study which has much to reveal about the structure and function of language."--BOOK JACKET.},

On one end we find biclausal structures: A causative main verb takes a clausal complement marked for subjunctive mood. These structures appear to conform to a West African areal pattern in which subjunctive mood, instantiated in a modal complementizer, appears in a range of deontic contexts, including causatives. At the other end, causative formation involves English-style “raising”, hence reduced clauses. The prevalence of either pattern strongly correlates with the contact trajectory of an individual AEC. Languages that have been in continuous contact with English generally feature a more fragmented modal system in which causative formation follows idiosyncratic strategies. AECs that have been insulated from English for a longer period, and the African AECs in general, feature more unitary modal systems in which causative constructions are formally part of a larger functional domain of deonticity.},

The model can explain the typological diversity within and across the AECs, help elucidate the genealogical and areal differentiation of the AECs, and contribute to our understanding of the processes and outcomes of language contact and change in multilingual ecologies.},

A study of ideophones in everyday conversations in Siwu (Kwa, eastern Ghana) reveals a landscape of variation and change that sheds light on some larger questions in the morphosyntactic typology of ideophones. This article documents a trade-off between expressiveness and morphosyntactic integration, with high expressiveness linked to low integration and vice versa. It also describes a pathway for deideophonization and finds that frequency of use influences the degree to which ideophones can come to be more like ordinary words. The findings have implications for processes of (de)ideophonization, ideophone borrowing, and ideophone typology. A key point is that the internal diversity we find in naturally occurring data, far from being mere noise, is patterned variation that can help us to get a handle on the factors shaping ideophone systems within and across languages.},

  title = {Code-Switching and Social Change: {{Convergent}} Language Mixing in a Multilingual Society},
  isbn = {978-3-11-034687-9},
  abstract = {The South American nation of Suriname boasts an unusual degree of societal multilingualism resulting in extensive language contact. The linguistic scenario of Suriname is characterized by the presence of two numerically and socially dominant languages, namely Dutch and Sranan Tongo and the undiminished importance of large community languages like Sarnámi (Surinamese Hindustani), Ndyuka and Surinamese Javanese. At the same time, we find a tendency towards language shift towards the two dominant languages in most linguistic communities of the country.
	In this talk, I will address two issues and in doing so will focus on Sranan Tongo, Sarnámi and Javanese. First, I will attempt to identify patterns of codemixing characteristic for the Surinamese contact scenario. So far, the data has revealed particular patterns of insertional mixing and borrowing, alternational mixing, as well as complex patterns of "fusional mixing" characterized by complex calquing, congruent lexicalization, innovative approximations of donor structures and constant changes of the matrix language. Second, I will explore the possbility that differences between the codemixing patterns of particular language constellations (e.g. Sarnámi–Sranan Tongo–Dutch vs. Javanese–Sranan Tongo–Dutch) may reflect specific configurations between social groups in Suriname and the type of social change that particular groups have been and are undergoing in recent times.
	A preliminary conclusion is that mixing patterns in Suriname bear a strong overall resemblance to each other in spite of the typological diversity of the languages involved in the different language constellations. At the same time, there are significant differences between the mixing patterns in these constellations which may be caused by differences in the social processes that groups of specific languages are subjected to.},

	isbn = {978-1-903292-15-0},
	abstract = {Recent attempts to prove the simplicity of Creoles with respect to non-Creoles have, like preceding ones concentrated on describing the assumed paucity of selected surfacephenomena in quantitative terms. None of these accounts has taken into consideration that typically, Creoles are languages in contact. In the multilingual speech communities of West Africa but equally so in other regions, Creoles and Pidgins are in contact with lexifier superstrates, with historically unrelated non-lexifier superstrates and with a host of adstrate and substrate languages. This paper attempts to provide answers to two questions. (1) Can we reconcile the complexity of the mixed grammar and lexicon of a language like Pichi withthe notion of simplicity given that code-mixing of the type presented here forms an integral partof the linguistic system of the language? (2) Can we reconcile the restructuring (or “elaboration”in terms of the simplicity hypothesis) of Pichi grammar and lexicon through code-mixing within the short time-span of a hundred and seventy years with the notion that the youth of Creoles makes them simpler than non-Creoles?},

The Atlas is published alongside a three-volume Survey of Pidgins and Creoles which describes the histories and linguistic characteristics of 76 languages. The books have been designed, edited, and written by the world's leading experts in the field and represent the most systematic and comprehensive guide ever published to the world's pidgins, creoles and mixed languages.
