dr_Pat_Pong Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 Until a few days ago, my signature was reading:"Boyfriend send you money. No send money, him customer." Pidgin is actually a semi-official language in PNG, Solomon Islands and around there. The name comes from "Beijing", the way Dutch tradesman centuries ago used to deal with Chinese. With 1100 words altogether it makes a great substitute for English and mutualy non-understandable tribal languages (PNG has over 700 languages, about 3000 people speak each). In "real pdgin", the expression "gabamen katchin fella" is used to say "policeman". Lived there 10 years ago, still remember. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Also from PNG ... Him fella belonga Missus Queen = Prince Phillip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
