It provides a detailed analysis of the phonology and grammar of the language, and points out key differences between these two fundamental aspects of the language and corresponding features of French. The book contains a detailed description of the productive strategies of vocabulary development, and deals with the origin of the lexicon of Haitian Creole. A signal innovation compared to other descriptions of the language is the treatment of linguistic variation, both geographical dialects and variation determined by social factors, as well as the presentation of earlier forms of Haitian Creole as attested by texts from the colonial period. Another major contribution is the discussion of language planning issues?the development of an autonomous systematic orthography and the standardization of the language?and related ones concerning the role of Haitian Creole in education and its status relative to the other officially recognized language of Haiti, French. 517 $aHaitian Creole 606 $aCreole dialects, French$zHaiti 606 $aCreole dialects, French$zHaiti$xHistory 606 $aCreole dialects, French$xSocial aspects$zHaiti 606 $aHaitians$xLanguages 606 $aNative language and education$zHaiti 615 0$aCreole dialects, French 615 0$aCreole dialects, French$xHistory. 615 0$aCreole dialects, French$xSocial aspects 615 0$aHaitians$xLanguages. 615 0$aNative language and education 676 $a447/.97294 700 $aValdman$b Albert$0192746 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910985635103321 996 $aHaitian Creole$94334732 997 $aUNINA
