sure who does the changing. One possibility is mat children are (1)______
responsible. A professor of linguistic at the University of Hawaii, (2)______
explores this in one of his recent books. Sometimes around 1880, a (3)______
language catastrophe occurred in Hawaii when thousands of emigrant (4)______
workers were brought to the islands to work for the new sugar
industry. These people speaking different languages were unable to
communicate with each other or with the native Hawaiians or the
dominant English-speaking owners of the plantations. So they first
spoke in Pidgin English — the sort of thing such mixed language (5)______
populations have always done. A pidgin is not really a language at all.
It is more like a set of verbal signals used to name objects and (6)______
without the grammatical rules needed for expressing thoughts and
ideas. And then, within a single generation, the whole mass of mixed
peoples began speaking a total new tongue: Hawaiian Creole. The (7)______
new speech was contained ready-made words borrowed from all the (8)______
original tongues, but bore little and no resemblance to the (9)______
predecessors in the rules used for stringing the words together.
Although generally regarded as primitive language, Hawaiian Creole (10)______
had a highly sophisticated grammar.
