General syntactic structure of Middle Portuguese, Marathi and Korlai PortugueseKorlai Portuguese (KP), a Portuguese-based creole only recently discovered by linguists, originated around 1520 on the west coast of India. Initially isolated from its Hindu and Muslim neighbors by social and religious barriers, the small Korlai community lost virtually all Portuguese contact as well after 1740. This volume is the first-ever comprehensive treatment of the formation, linguistic components, and rapidly changing situation of this exotic creole.Creole language library ;16.Creole dialects, PortugueseIndiaKorlaiHistoryCreole dialects, PortugueseIndiaKorlaiGrammarCreole dialects, PortugueseHistory.Creole dialects, PortugueseGrammar.467.7/9954Clements J.
