Right. I did not think my pidgin language was correct. But I assumed I'd get the message across.
Thanks for clarifying. Being a teacher / editor / writer, I love language, even pidgins and creoles.
"Dola soon fall." (my pidgin) 😂

Ohh. I understand why you tried so badly to make a sentence.
I didn't make much changes, so yeah, you're on the right track in speaking pigin😂😂
"No be say dola no go fall, but e go te small"😂😂
Meaning: It's not that dollar won't fall but it's going to take quite some time😂😂
Thank you very much for trying

Clearly, a pidgin is virtually a separate, unique language. I can hardly understand any of those sentences.
😂😂😂😂😂
Are you serious???
I'm surprised though
Well since I understand it I don't expect everyone else to.
❤️❤️❤️

Since a pidgin is usually based on 2 or more other languages, and has its own grammar and vocab, it cannot be well understood by speakers of the original languages. In that sense, a pidgin is essentially a language unto itself.
