Merger proposal

I propose that Trinidadian Creole be merged into Trinidadian English. I think that the content in the Trinidadian Creole article can easily be explained in the context of Trinidadian English, and the Trinidadian English article is of a reasonable size in which the merging of Trinidadian Creole will not cause any problems as far as article size or undue weight is concerned. Also, I think it may prevent confusion with Trinidadian French Creole which used to be simply called (Trinidadian) Creole. John Hill (talk) 22:35, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

As a matter of interest, I thought I should add here that Trinidadian French Creole was still commonly spoken in some Trinidadian villages (especially in the northern range) as a "first language" in the 1950s. My father, who grew up totally bilingual in Montreal learned how to speak it fluently which won him many friends and helped him in his work as a doctor. People were amazed to find a foreigner who could speak it so well. Cheers, John Hill (talk) 05:27, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

population

0.7% of the population for the plurality language is dubious. S.t. is wrong. — kwami (talk) 09:37, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

Full pelt and Vaps

Added these new words to the Trinidad Creole page. Got the definition from the dictionary Côté ci Côté la. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kidjournalist (talk • contribs) 06:58, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
