Haitian Creole, often called simply Creole or Kreyòl, is a language spoken by about twelve million people, which includes
virtually the entire population of Haiti and via emigration, by about two to three million speakers residing in the Bahamas,
Belize, Canada, Cayman Islands, Cuba, Dominican Republic, France, French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Ivory Coast, Martinique, Puerto
Rico, Trinidad and Tobago, the United States, and Venezuela. Haitian Creole is one of Haiti's two official languages, along
with French. It is a creole based largely on 18th-century French and some West African languages, and has secondary influence
from other languages. In school, all kids learn both Creole and French. Partly due to efforts of Félix Morisseau-Leroy, since
1961 Haitian Creole has been recognized as an official language along with French, which had been the sole literary language
of the country since its independence in 1804. Its orthography was standardized in 1979. The official status was maintained
under the country's 1987 constitution. The use of Haitian Creole in literature has been small but is increasing. Morisseau
was one of the first and most influential authors to write in Haitian Creole. Since the 1980s, many educators, writers and
activists have written literature in Haitian Creole. Today numerous newspapers, as well as radio and television programs,
are produced in Haitian Creole. As required by the Joseph C. Bernard (Secrétaire d'État de l'éducation nationale) law of 18
September 1979, the Institut Pédagogique National established an official orthography for Kreyòl, and slight modifications
were made over the next two decades. For example, the hyphen (-) is no longer used, nor is the apostrophe. The only accent
accepted is the grave accent (à, è, or ò). |
