“It should, yes, once it has been standardised and
everybody knows it then it should be available and it should
be allowed to be spoken and people should take it as
standard. That makes it normal, that makes it common for
people to know.”
(Terrence- England)
“Pidgin is spoken by French speaking, Pidgin is spoken by
illiterates, Pidgin is spoken by well educated people, Pidgin
is spoken by those who speak in English like mother tongue,
Pidgin is spoken by everybody and I think the most
important thing in any country is uniting its people. And if we
have something which can unite us then I think we should
use it and Pidgin is a very good example. Because you forget
your origin when you are speaking Pidgin which is not the
same with the other languages.”
(Sylvie- Germany)
“If only we could improve Pidgin and bring it up to the
standard of written language. Yes, definitely it’s going to be
something very very important. It’s going to be a great
achievement. Not only for Cameroonians, for many other
African countries where you have Pidgin.”
