Interesting Facts About the Tok Pisin Language
Spoken by over 4 million people, Tok Pisin is one of the most widely used languages in Papua New Guinea. Its history started during the colonial times of the 19th century when English speakers needed to communicate with locals. Today, however, it has transformed into a fully fledged language with around 120,000 native speakers (although estimates vary considerably), and many millions who speak it as a second language.
Five Interesting Facts about Tok Pisin:
1. Tok Pisin literally means “talk pidgin”, although it has evolved over time to be much more than pidgin.
2. Although it was originally built on the English language, today Tok Pisin and English are not mutually intelligible. It has acquired its own vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar, which make it quite distinct from English.
3. Although the majority of Tok Pisin words stem from English, it has also been heavily influenced by local languages, including Austronesian and Papuan languages. There is also some evidence of German and Portuguese vocabulary, such as “haus” (from German) and “pikinini” from the Portuguese word pequenino (meaning “little one).
4. In Papua New Guinea, there are over 800 languages in use. Tok Pisin is something of a unifier, as it allows people with different mother tongues to communicate easily.
5. Tok Pisin uses the notion of “reduplication” to emphasize actions or to express repetition. For example, “toktok” means to talk a lot, and “go go” means to keep on moving.
